Guest guest Posted December 28, 2009 Report Share Posted December 28, 2009 So Says Sai The purpose for which you give clothes like pants, shirts, sheets, etc. to laundry, is to get them cleaned. So too, whether it is meditation that you are encouraging, or discourse that you are arranging or Bhajan (Group Singing) that you are organizing or clothes that you are offering to the needy or worship that you are conducting, the object is just cleansing the mind of tarnish of egoism, greed, hatred, malice, lust and envy. The main aim of all activities is only to cleanse the mind. One has to be very careful about food, especially when one is proceeding Godward, through the steep path of Yoga. Remember also that 'dress' is primarily for protection against heat and cold, not for vain display at the cost of even health. Do not be a victim of lust or taste. Be moderate in food and keep the senses strictly under control.
