Spiritual Blossoms - 5

BHAGAVAN says:

On Youth:

Youth is like a sweet fruit. The fruit of your heart (hyudaya phala),

and the fruit of your mind (mano phala) must be offered to GOD. It is

difficult to think of GOD in your old age when you have lost control over the

senses. Start early, drive slowly, and reach safely. You should start

praying to GOD right from this tender (early, immature) age. If you do

not start praying now when your body is strong, when you are mentally alert and

when your capacity for spirituality is at its peak, when is a better time?

 

Right at this time when you are physically strong, your senses are under

control; when your mind is full of faith offer the flower of your heart (hrudaya

pushpam) to the lord. This is the proper offering to the GOD. But you do

not make such an offering! You indulge (yield freely to a desire) your

senses, you spend all your time enjoying with all the senses. The balance of

life that is left over which you no longer relish (great liking or enjoyment)

is offered to GOD. You offer to Krishna the flower petals that have blown away

by the wind! When all the senses have lost their strength, their capacity and

their ability, what is it that being offered to GOD? You have to serve GOD when

you are at a peak – physically strong, when the senses are strong (indriya

sakthi), the mind is stable (mano sakthi), the discrimination (

unfavorable

treatment) is clear (buddhi sakthi) and you are full with wisdom (

jnana

sakthi). If you do not surrender to GOD, at this right time when will you?

 

 

START PRACTISING DHARMA WHEN:

 

1. The senses are strong

: Indriya sakthi

 

2. The mind is stable

: Mano sakthi

 

3. The intellect is clear

: Buddhi sakthi

 

4. The heart is full of wisdom

:

Jnana sakthi

 

 

"PRACTICE

MAKES YOU PERFECT"
