THE NATURAL FLOW OF LIFE Everything within you is entirely natural. There is nothing within you that is against nature, for being a product of nature, you have to be natural. It is because of the thought processes that go on in your mind that you feel yourself to be unnatural, “un-natural”. Why must a person...
THE NATURAL ART OF SERVICE Service is performed by everything that is natural. Observe a flower, how well it serves us in its beauty and its fragrance. Observe the rain, how well it serves us by providing the water for things to grow. Observe the sun, how beautifully it serves us by providing heat and light....
APPRECIATE THE SIMPLICITY OF LIFE AND THE GREATNESS OF IT WILL DESCEND UPON YOU Vivekananda had given a discourse in a hall not far from where he lived, and on the way back they were talking and walking. He said, “Hey, I have got it!” They were all so excited and wanted to know, “You know,...

WE CAN GO BEYOND THE PATTERNS SET BY SAMSCARIC AND KARMIC VALUES Any person can, in this very lifetime, reach the stage of Samadhi, or self-realisation, or experience oneness with Divinity. When we are born, we are born within and with a specific pattern. Say a child is born with an IQ of 100. Another child...
LIFE IS TRUTH, AND THAT IS KNOWN BY ITS VARIOUS DEGREES There is only one form of life, really speaking, and this form of life has its separate gradations.
