Guest guest Posted February 1, 2010 Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 Some words keep showing light always in many ways. And need no more words to describe them. Sharing few such words of Swami Tapovanam. ================================================ * It is impossible to exhause desires through enjoyment. So the only way to overcome them is through right thinking. * As qualifications differ, duties too differ. * He is a Mahatma who keeps the tongue, word and the mind perfectly under control and patiently withstands all provocations. * To appear fresh every second is the true nature of beauty. * Mind control that leads to the acquisition of siddhis, and the purity of mind that secures the vision of God are different. * Pranayama, practised without a spirit of dispassion, is just like the control of breath practised by fishermen while diving into the sea to catch fish. * Heated debates lead only to the breach of peace and can never lead to the discovery of the Truth. * Who can escape scalding if he touches fire? Similarly, if one meddles with sensuous pleasures, how can he escape pollution? * If by studying the scriptures one can become a sannyasin, by counting the King's money one must become a millionaire. * Tapas means turning pain into pleasure. ============================== Hari OM -Srinivas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
