What are the important speed breakers in life that we must adhere to? Swami lovingly teaches us today.

DIf you continue to imitate others, your own strength will gradually diminish. Therefore, do not imitate others. Observe restraint. For example, the lion attacks the animal only when it is hungry. It does not go about killing every animal that it comes across. Thus even a wild beast like the lion has the capacity to restrain itself. Hence it is necessary for every human being to observe restraint and certain limits. Do not utilize your strength and power indiscriminately. Trying to amass wealth and being over-smart will only lead you to danger. Limitless ego, anger, and desire will only lead you astray. You have to divert your mind from such a situation and follow the noble path so that you do not cause harm to others nor do you suffer in the process. .

What is the path to realizing Divine within oneself? The Divine Master shows us the way today.

Develop knowledge about the higher levels of consciousness and the higher planes of existence. Knowledge leads to skill. From skill in using such knowledge, one acquires balance. You must recognize that this life is a stage in the long pilgrimage, and that we are now at a hotel, a temporary resting place. There is a watchman to the hotel, which is your mind. Do not feel permanently attached to the mind or the body. This "negative" body has the "positive" Divinity within it. When you become all embracing infinite Love, the Divine will manifest in and through you. Try to be like the Divine.

What is the real reason for chanting the Names of the Lord? What benefits will accrue to us when we chant the Names of the Lord? Swami teaches us kindly today.

You must realize that Bhajan, Namasmaran and Puja (chanting the Name and worshipping God) are not for pleasing or making God happy, but for our own spiritual progress. Frequently, people flatter the rich and the powerful - especially when they are in their employment or are beholden to them for some precious help - in order to induce them to shower gifts on them. But God does not shower Grace on people because they sing His praises. Nor does He come down upon them because they do not worship Him. Recitation of the Divine attributes only enable us to dwell on elevating ideals and approximate ourselves more and more to the Divinity that is our true nature.

- BABA  (Divine Discourse, March 7, 1978.)
