The drama was about the birth of Jesus Christ. Which small children beautifully recreated. The Choir with some wonderful songs accompanied them. After the drama the choir continued and sang few more songs. Prasadam was distributed to all the devotees in Sai Kulwant Hall. Swami also presented the performers and the Choir with clothes. With aarathi the events ended for the day and Swami left for Yajur Mandir (swami's home). Thought for the Day It does not suffice if in the name of spiritual practice, you confine yourself merely to Japa (chanting), Tapa (penance) and Dhyana (meditation). It is in fact Chittha Shuddhi (purity of the mind) that leads to Jnana Siddhi (acquisition of wisdom). Cultivation of purity of the mind is therefore the true spiritual practice that you should undertake. With purity of the mind and attainment of wisdom, man achieves equipoise. (translated into Indonesian by Udayo Untarya Wijaya) Tidaklah cukup bila engkau hanya berpuas diri dengan praktek-praktek spiritual seperti Japa (mengulang-ulang nama-nama Tuhan), Tapa (tapa-brata) dan Dhyana (meditasi). Chittha Shuddhi (kemurnian batin) menghasilkan Jnana Siddhi (tercapainya kebijaksanaan). Memupuk batin yang murni adalah jenis praktek spiritual sejati yang harus engkau laksanakan. Dengan berbekal batin yang murni dan kebijaksanaan, maka manusia akan memperoleh keseimbangan batin. (translated into German by Margitta Bonds) Es ist nicht ausreichend, wenn ihr im Namen von spiritueller Übung euch selbst lediglich auf Wiederholung (Japa), Buße (Tapa) und Meditation (Dhyana) beschränkt. Es ist tatsächlich die Reinheit des Geistes (Chittha Shuddi), die zum Erwerb von Weisheit (Jnana Siddhi) führt. Die Pflege der Reinheit des Geistes (mind) ist deshalb die wahre spirituelle Übung, die ihr ausführen sollt. Mit einem reinem Geist und dem erwerben von Weisheit, kann der Mensch Gleichgewicht erreichen. .. (translated into Spanish by Equipo Namo) No es suficiente si en nombre de la práctica espiritual, te limitas sólo a Japa (cantar), Tapa (penitencia) y Dhyana (meditación). Es de hecho Chittha Shuddhi (pureza de la mente) la que conduce a Jnana Siddhi (adquisición de sabiduría). Por lo tanto, el cultivo de la pureza de la mente, es la verdadera práctica espiritual que debes emprender. Con la pureza de la mente y la obtención de la sabiduría, el hombre alcanza el equilibrio. ( translated into Italian by Mabatini ) Non è sufficiente se, in nome di qualche pratica spirituale, vi ritirate a recitare semplicemente per fare Japa ( recitazione), Tapa (penitenza) e Dhyana ( meditazione) . E’ infatti la purezza della mente (Chitta Shuddi) che porta ad acquisire la saggezza (Jnana Siddi). Coltivare la Purezza della mente è pertanto la vera pratica spirituale a cui ci si deve sottoporre. Con la purezza della mente e l’ottenimento della saggezza l’uomo raggiunge il suo perfetto equilibrio. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are d to the " Puttaparthilive.com Newsletter " .
