Guest guest Posted December 29, 2002 Report Share Posted December 29, 2002 jaya guru datta! The entire human life is but a constant intersection between Subject and the object i.e you as a Subject and the world outside as the object.The object of the world are countless.You cannot count them as you cannot count the Stars in the sky or waves of an ocean. Man's mind runs after one subject or the other, and it goes, on and on all his life .What a folly and ignorance! The objective world, which is outside,is considered as if it is the source of one's happiness. Man has forgotten that he is actually the Subject and not the Object . Once he realizes this, the manifold objects of this world will no longer affect him. He will begin to abide in the supreme peace and bliss which he himself is - being the subject. With the dawn of realization ,objects of the world will stop striking the human mind with their effect of pleasure and pain, one will be just a Witness!! - Sookti Recently appaji visited the Chennai ashram and stayed there for five days. on all five days he stressed that it is very important to control ones mind and one should not entertain unwanted thoughts. Allowing unwanted thoughts is a sin it is equal to the sins committed physically.He also said that sins committed physically can be washed away by punishments but sins committed mentally cannot be washed. Hence MEDITATION is the best way to control our main. He also advised everyone to practice pranayama atleast 5 to 10 times a day. jaya guru datta Sruthi.
