Guest guest Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 Preface by Sri Sri Daya Mata " For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he " (Proverbs 23:7). This wisdom may be heeded by every man who would improve himself and strive to realise the highest goal of life: God. What we consistently think about will influence what we become. Our circumstances in life, our moods and habits, our successes and failures, are largely products of our thoughts. Indeed, the power of mind is the originating and governing force behind all creation. Training the mind to dwell on positive, inspiring thoughts helps one to concentrate his energies for the accomplishment of a definite and lasting objective. I learned to apply this spiritual science years ago under the guidance of my great guru, Sri Sri Paramahamsa Yogananda. To take even one facet of Truth each day and dwell upon it, and strive to live by it, has a miraculously transforming effect on one's inner and outer life. Never begin a day without first anchoring the mind to some guiding principle of Truth. We easily become caught up in material duties and forget our spiritual responsibilities. We slave for the body; but what of our duty to the soul? That image of God within us cries to express its Spirit-qualities: eternal life, immeasurable divine love and wisdom, boundless joy. All that God is, and has, is ours by divine birthright. To know this is Self-realisation. In this Spiritual Diary are inspiring thoughts to guide you each day of the year. If you apply them in all your endeavours, material or spiritual, your actions will be surcharged with divine power. Think truth, think good, think God. If your mind is filled with His light, there can be no darkness for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
