MYSTERY - MONGERING WEAKENS THE HUMAN BRAIN

MYSTERY - MONGERING WEAKENS THE HUMAN BRAIN " Anything that is secret and mysterious in these systems of Yoga should be at once rejected. The best guide in life is strength. In religion, as in all other matters, discard everything that weakens you, have nothing to do with it. Mystery-mongering weakens the human brain " - Swami Vivekananda Volume 1, Raja-Yoga

FAITH, I WAIT UPON FAITH, COME WHAT MAY

FAITH, I WAIT UPON FAITH, COME WHAT MAY Start with the idea that we can finish all experience of this world in this incarnation. We must aim to become perfect in this life this very moment. Success only comes to that life amongst men who wants to do this very moment. It is acquired by him who says : " Faith, I wait upon faith, come what may. " Therefore, go on knowing you are to finish this very moment. Struggle hard, and then, if you do not succeed, you are not to blame. Let world praise or blame you, let all the wealth of the earth come to your feet, or let you be made the poorest on earth, let death come this moment or hundreds of years hence, swerve not from the path you have taken. All good thoughts are immortal and go to make Buddhas and Christs. - Swami Vivekananda Page 30 - Swami Vivekananda and His Work by Swami Abhedananda
