126-Becoming the Lion of Courage for your Destiny

  Courage: Spiritual Diary, ParamahansaYogananda, "Whispers From Eternity"

     I know now that I am a lion of cosmic power. Bleating no more, I shake the error forest with reverberations of Thine almighty voice. In divine freedom I bound through the jungle of earthly delusions, devouring the little creatures of vexing worries and timidities, and the wild hyenas of disbelief.

     O Lion of Liberation, ever send through me Thy roar of all-conquering courage.

                                             * * *

     Do not fear the future! The future is bright with growth and the blossoming of your life. Pay attention to your health and protect your self and your environment from the Delta Variant by Observing Safety Rules and getting Vaccinated. To be a Leader of your Pride you must protect your fellow citizens and families. You cannot be a leader with courage and bravado by displaying ignorance regarding life. There is no compromise in your responsibilities to yourself and your fellow human beings. Move forward with the assurance that you are the Master and Commander of your Destiny grounded in the Divine Guidance of Your Creator. Roar at the World and the delusion of the Ignorance. You can and will be the Leader that you Desire to be.

106-How to become the Controller of your own destiny, In the time of the New Renaissance.

 Mind is the creator of everything.. You should therefore guide it to create only good. If you cling to a thought with dynamic will power. It finally assumes a tangible  outward form. When you are able to employ your will always for constructive purposes, you become the controller of your own destiny.---

                                  Paramahansa Yogananda, "The Law of Success"

                              Spiritual Diary, Paramahansa Yogananda

Easily spoken or read but very difficult to put into practice. Even in meditation the mind wants to wander, you must gently coax it back to divine providence and dynamic will. Heady thoughts that boggle the simplicity of the act. Sit in silence and concentrate. There are many wonderful You Tube videos, Anmol Mehta (Yoga also) is easy to learn from, as well as Lessons from Self-Realization. Make the effort today to calm the noise and focus your thoughts. You will be amazed at the results and improvement in your well being. While music for meditation abounds their is a spirited discussion on the benefits. Listen or not and decide for yourself. I enjoy Kirtan Chanting. Krishna Das (krishnadas.com) is perhaps one of the foremost artists in this genre, as well as his associate Nina Rao, also Deva Premal. You would be well served to explore this phenomenon. All of life is grist for your thinking mill and it seems that in Today's World doing everything possible to set your self on the course of success would be your very first priority. All will be added from there. It is an absolute Law of the Universe. The practices that you will learn and be exposed to are Centuries old, practiced by Enlightened Masters. You don't have to join the Hare Krishnas. Although I remember buying my very first Bahagavad Gita from a Krishna in the old Stapelton Airport in Denver returning from a Ski trip to Arapahoe Basin in the late 70's. I did not go back to New York and sell flowers on the streets of the City with all the other Hare Krishna's. Your choice it is not vodoo but it is proven scientific methods to happiness and success.

103-Following The Law of Intention And Desire, In The Time Of The Renaissance

You are what your deep, driving desire is.

As your desire is, so is your will.

As your will is, so is your deed.

As your deed is, so is your destiny.

Brihadaranyka

The Law of Intention and Desire

Inherent in every intention and desire is the mechanics for its fulfillment... intention and desire in the field of pure potentiality have infinite organizing power. And when we introduce an intention in the fertile ground of pure potentiality, we put this infinite organizing power to work for us.

Fifty-Five, Blazing Your Own Trail; In The Time Of The Coronavirus

 “Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.”

- Ralph Waldo Emerson

There are many sayings involving your path in life. All of which contain a pearl of wisdom regarding your choices as to how to find your way. Find that which motivates you and would provide you with your greatest satisfaction in life. Live life for the betterment of yourself and others. Serve humanity in way the uplifts spirits and in turn your spirit and life will be uplifted.

Do not be obligated to follow the maddening crowd for they often are mindless followers. Be of your own mind and fortitude. You create your own destiny in life by your actions or inactions. Set your sights on the accomplishments of far reaching goals and work daily toward the achievement of them. The beaten path is truly for beaten people!
