“Make your offering,” said the Master. “As you make it be pleased in mind. Make your mind completely calm and contented. Focus and fill the offering-mind with the giving. From this secure position you can be free from ill will.”
Now you worship His Form, you repeat His name; ignoring His orders. Without practicing the discipline laid down by Rama to purify the mind, all else is mere show, empty rituals.
Undisturbed calmness of mind is attained by cultivating friendliness towards the happy, compassion for the unhappy, delight in the virtuous and indifference towards the wicked.
The despair, anger, worries, frustration, etc. hidden in your mind can only be
eliminated by understanding the "science of mind".
-Deep Trivedi
The depths of our mind has an "auto tuning" with nature. Once a person has
started living from these depths...no harm can ever be caused to him.
-Deep Trivedi
Good is that which elevates the mind and evil is that which degrades the mind. Social virtue and vice are temporal entities; they have nothing to do with your relationship with the Supreme.
The root cause of all the miseries of human life is the chaotic activities of his
'mind'. Hence, the only way to eliminate the "pains and miseries" from this world
is to properly educate him about the functioning of 'mind'.
-Deep Trivedi
The mind is the instrument, the flywheel, and the thickest comrade of man. Through it, one can ruin oneself or save oneself. Regulated and controlled, channeled properly it can liberate; wayward and let loose, it can entangle and bind fast.
Direct the mind resolutely towards God, restraining the senses in their various seats, and looking on the state of the body as a matter of indifference. Realise your oneness with God, remaining continually intent on identifying with its nature…for what use is there in other, empty things?
Mind is like an ocean - stormy at the surface, calmest in the depths.
