"The less people know of your spiritual life, the better it will be for you." 

-The Gospel of Sri Ramakrishna

self

In talking about how the sage sees the illusory world (mithya) as Real (satyam), Bhagavan explains, 

“He who sees the Self, sees only the Self in the world also. To the jnani it is immaterial whether the world appears or not. Whether it appears or not, his attention is always on the Self. 

It is like the letters and the paper on which the letters are printed. You are wholly engrossed with the letters and have no attention left for the paper. But the jnani thinks only of the paper as the real substratum, whether the letters appear on it or not.

- Sri Ramana Maharshi.

freedom

surrender

Lose yourself altogether when bowing down to God with a single-minded devotion and you will obtain joy and power in proportion. If you cannot do anything else, at least morning and evening at the appointed time, lay down your body, mind and life before Him in salutation and surrender, and think of Him just a little.

Ma Anandamayi

no thing

"My world is just like yours. I see, I hear, I feel, I think, I speak and act in a world I perceive, just like you. But with you it is all, with me it is nothing. 

Knowing the world to be a part of myself, I pay it no more attention than you pay to the food you have eaten. While being prepared and eaten, the food is separate from you and your mind is on it; once swallowed, you become totally unconscious of it.

I have eaten up the world and I need not think of it any more."

~Nisargadatta Maharaj

thAt happiness

Happiness that depends on anything or anyone turns into sorrow when that particular thing or person is out of reach. Everything in this world is transitory. So also worldly happiness: it comes and goes. For permanent abiding happiness, realize That which is eternal.

mind

The mind, hankering after things of the world, is more

restless than a monkey. If one controls it from wandering after external things and holds it in the void of non-matter one will attain liberation directly.

Thanks to God

Keep a heart of gratitude for all that life brings you. Everything is in service to your awakening from this long sleep of delusion into your real Self so full of life and love. 

Say thank you to life.

Say thank you to God.

Say thank you to your most inmost being.

Even if you cannot see at the moment what to say thank you for, keep on saying thank you. It will change the vibration inside and make you light and open and full of love, forgiveness and joy.

In the end of all things: Don't worry.

All is in God' s hands.

Everything is good.

Everything is good.

🌺 Mooji
