Keep your own house and its surroundings pure and clean. This hygiene will keep you healthy and benefit your worldly life.
God is in everyone. God is in you and you are God. Strengthen this fundamental truth. When you propagate this truth, that is the real service. It is the service that will take you to closer proximity, a boat. In this ocean of life, take the help of this boat and gain the proximity.
Prema (love): practice that; develop that; spread that; and all the hatreds and jealousies of today will disappear. That is the duty of the Divine Life Society, here as well as elsewhere.
Human values should predominate in men's thoughts. Human life has no meaning without these values.
Men seek the causes for death but no one seeks the Divine source of life.
Life is endless, not punctuated by nights, days, months and years - for all are one, in the eternal stream.
Swami cannot give peace of mind; you must work for it yourselves. First, stop the questioning and ask, 'who am I?'. This is my body, my mind, my intelligence. But who is this 'My'? Who is it that claims the ownership of that which is declared to be 'mine'? 'My' indicates ownership. That 'My' is the life. As long as the life is in the body, there is this connection between the 'my' and the intellect - 'my' body, 'my' house, 'my' land. But the moment you remove the life from the body, there is no 'my' or sense of possession. Life is God.
LIFE + DESIRE = MAN; LIFE - DESIRE = GOD.
Do not contemplate on death; it is just an incident in life; contemplate on God, who is the master of all life.
Whatever may be the experience in everyday life, the basic inner Truth should not be forgotten.
