LIFE CHANGING POINTS

                                                     MORNING MELODIES....

    1. IF YOU WANT TO BE RELIGIOUS, ENTER NOT THE GATE OF ANY ORGANISED RELIGIONS. THEY DO A HUNDRED TIMES MORE EVIL THAN GOOD, BECAUSE THEY STOP THE GROWTH OF EACH ONE'S INDIVIDUAL DEVELOPMENT.

   2. IT IS A VERY HARD THING TO UNDERSTAND, BUT YOU WILL COME TO LEARN IN TIME THAT NOTHING IN THE UNIVERSE HAS POWER OVER YOU UNTIL YOU ALLOW IT TO EXERCISE SUCH A POWER.

   3. BELIEVE NOT BECAUSE SOME OLD MANUSCRIPTS ARE PRODUCED, BELIEVE NOT BECAUSE IT IS YOUR NATIONAL BELIEF, BECAUSE YOU HAVE BEEN MADE TO BELIEVE IT FROM YOUR CHILDHOOD, BUT REASON IT ALL OUT, AND AFTER YOU HAVE ANALYSED IT, THEN , IF YOU FIND THAT IT WILL DO GOOD TO ONE AND ALL, BELIEVE IT, LIVE UP TO IT, AND HELP OTHERS TO LIVE UP TO IT.

 4. HE DOES NOT NEED ANYTHING. HE DOES NOT WANT ANYTHING.

 5. TO THOSE WHO ARE FULL OF TARMAS, IGNORANT AND DULL- THOSE WHOSE MINDS NEVER GET FIXED ON ANY IDEA, WHO ONLY CRAVE FOR SOMETHING TO AMUSE THEM RELIGION AND PHILOSOPHY ARE SIMPLY OBJECTS OF ENTERTAINMENT, THESE ARE THE UNPERSVERING. THEY HEAR A TALK, THINK IT VERY NICE AND THEN GO HOME AND FORGET ALL ABOUT IT. TO SUCCEED, YOU MUST HAVE TREMENDOUS PERSEVERANCE, TREMENDOUS WILL. I WILL DRINK THE OCEAN, SAYS THE PERSEVERING SOUL, AT MY WILL MOUNTAINS WILL CRUMBLE UP. HAVE THAT SORT OF ENERGY THAT SORT OF WILL, WORK HARD, AND YOU WILL REACH THE GOAL.

 6. THE HIGHEST MANIFESTATION OF STRENGTH IS TO KEEP OURSELVES CALM AND ON OUR OWN FEET.

 7. A PERFECT LIFE IS A CONTRADICTION IN TERMS. LIFE ITSELF IS A STATE OF CONTINUOUS STRUGGLE BETWEEN OURSELVES AND EVERYTHING OUTSIDE. EVERY MOMENT WE ARE FIGHTING ACTUALLY WITH ETERNAL NATURE, AND IF WE ARE DEFEATED, OUR LIFE HAS TO GO.

 8. IN ENJOYMENT IS THE FEAR OF DESEASE, IN HIGH BIRTH, THE FEAR OF LOSING CASTE, IN THE FEAR OF LOSING IT, IN STREGTH THE FEAR AGE IN KNOWLEDGE THE FEAROF DEFEAT, IN VIRTUE THE FEAR OF SCANDAL IN THE BODY THE FEAR OF DEATH. IN THIS LIFE ALL IS FRAUGHT WITH FEAR. REUNCIATION ALONE IS FEARLESS.

 9. LEAVE UPON IT DIFFERENT PICTURES, AND THE RESULT OF THESE COMBINED IMPRESSIONS IS WHAT IS CALLED MAN'S CHARACTER. IF YOU TAKE THE CHARACTER OF ANY MAN IT REALLY IS BUT THE AGGREGATE OF TENDENCIES, THE SUM- TOTAL OF THE BENT OF HIS MIND, YOU WILL FIND THAT MISERY AND HAPPINESS ARE EQUAL FACTORS IN THE FORMATION.

 10. ALL THIS BRINGING OF THE MIND INTO A HIGHER STATE OF VIBRATION IS INCLUDED IN ONE WORDS IN YOGA- SAMADHI.

 11. THE SELFLESS AND UNATTACHED MAN MAY LIVE IN THE VERY HEART OF A CROWDED AND SINFYL CITY, HE WILL NOT BE TOUCHED BY SIN.

 12. THE HINDUS BELIEVES THAT EVERY SOUL IS A CIRCLE WHOSE CIRCUMFERENCE IS NOWHERE, BUT WHOSE CENTRE IS LOCATED IN THE BODY, AND THAT DEATH MEANS THE CHANGE OF THIS CENTRE FROM BODY TO BODY.

 13. IT IS ONLY THE CONTEMPLATIVE, WITNESS LIKE STUDY OF OBJECTS THAT BRINGS TO US REAL ENJOYMENT AND HAPPINESS. THE ANIMAL HAS ITS HAPPINESS IN THE SENSES, THA MAN IN HIS INTELECT, AND THE GOD IN SPIRITUAL CONTEMPLATION. IT IS ONLY TO THE SOUL THAT HAS ATTAINED TO THIS CONTEMPLATIVE STATE THAT THE WORLD REALLY BECOMES BEAUTIFUL. TO HIM WHO DESIRES NOTHING, AND DOES NOT MIX HIMSELF UP WITH THEM, THE MANIFOLD CHANGES OF NATURE ARE ONE PANORAMA OF BEAUTY AND SUBLIMITY.

       14. THE YOGI TEACHES THAT THE MIND ITSELF HAS A HIGHER STATE OF EXISTENCE, BEYONG REASON, A SUPERCONSCIOUS STATE, AND WHEN THE MIND GETS TO THAT HIGHER STATE, THEN THIS KNOWLEDGE, BEYOND REASONING, COMES TO MAN. METAPHYSICAL AND TRANSCENDENTAL KNOWLEDGE COMES TO THAT MA.

      15. HOLD THE IDEAL A THOUSAND TIMES, AND IF YOU FAIL A THOUSAND TIMES, MAKE THE ATTEMPT ONCE MORE. THERE IS INFINITE LIFE BEFORE THE SOUL. TAKE YOUR TIME AND YOU WILL ACHIEVE YOUR END.

     16. MERCY SHALL NOT BE FOR MEN ALONE, BUT SHALL GO BEYOND, AND EMBRACE THE WHOLE WORLD.

     17. MOST OF OUR DIFFICULTIES IN OUR DAILY LIVES COME FROM BEING UNABLE TO HOLD OUR MINDS IN THIS WAY. FOR INSTANCE, IF A MAN DOES EVIL TO US, INSTANTLY WE WANT TO REACT EVIL, AND EVERY REACTION OF EVIL SHOWS THAT WE ARE NOT ABLE TO HOLD THE CHITTA DOWN, IT COMES OUT IN WAVES TOWARDS THE OBJECT AND WE LOSE OUR POWER.
