104-How to Attain Complete Liberation, Through The Law Of Success: In The Time of The Renaissance

 Man as an image of God, possesses within him the all-accomplishing power of will. To discover through right meditation how to be in harmony with Divine Will is man's highest obligation.-

Paramahansa Yogananda,  "The Law of Success"      

"The knower of Spirit, abiding in the Supreme Being, with unswerving discrimination, free from delusion is thus neither jubilant at pleasant experiences nor downcast by unpleasant experiences,

"Unattracted to the sensory world, the yogi experiences the ever new joy inherent in Self. Engaged in divine union of the soul with Spirit, he attains bliss indestructible.....

Only that yogi who possesses the inner Light, becomes one with Spirit (after attaining freedom from karma connected with the physical, astral, and ideational bodies). He attains complete liberation in Spirit (even while living in the body)."

(God Talks With Arjuna: The Bhagavad Gita v:19--21,24).

Aligning your will with Divine Will through proper prayer, meditation, and action will free your sensory attachment to delusion (Maya). Once free you will be able to fulfill your potential on this earthly plain unencumbered by the failures of your own making. You must realizes that the Law of Success is absolute, that by following right living, right knowledge and right thoughts you will find your Liberation.

Fifty-Nine; Overcoming Trials, InThe Time Of The Coronavirus

      “Your trials did not come to punish you, but to awaken you – to make you realize that you are a part of Spirit and that just behind the sparks of your life is the Flame of Infinity.” Paramahansa Yogananda

     Trials abound all around us at this time. They are ever pervasive and daunting. They cannot be allowed to become part of your ether. You must use everything at your disposal to block negative energy from yourself and your environment. Cleansing and clearing negative energy and brining positive and healing energy can be accomplished by smudging your space and self. It is an ancient art and will help you to clear your environment.

    Meditate deeply on positive thoughts and read literature by enlightened masters. Remember that this is a new reset. Preconceived ideas about how things are now are archaic. No longer live under the veil of maya. Step out into the light and join those that are working for the greater good of the world and society as a whole. These are new times and will some day be referred to as the Pandemic Reformation or the Great Renaissance after the Coronavirus. Be a leader of the movement and not a follower. The times make the Leader. The opportunity to have a Lead Walk On Part In The Greatest Show the world has ever seen is yours for the taking. Do not be a shrinking violet. Step up grab the brass ring and command your future. We are and we will not falter. I hope you will join us. May God Bless You and Keep You Well through these times.

     

Twenty Six: Developing Spiritual Magnetism in the Time of Coronavirus

Developing Spiritual Magnetism

 Yogananda's Healing Techniques

Cultivate within yourself spiritual magnetism like that of Krishna and great Masters. In order to do this, you must express selfless love for all. Try always to be helpful. Develop your usefulness to your family, to your community and friends. Be willing wherever you are. That makes you a magnetic person. If you love people without any motive then you can have divine magnetism.

Keep this unselfish love, compassion, pity for others, grow it in your heart and thus let's pray for healing.   Paramahansa Yogannada

     Don't become closed off to life. Life can overwhelm you and make you withdraw and harden your heart. It isn't easy to soften your heart and to be open and loving in your life. Don't be afraid to express your feelings. This world is too full of automatons mindlessly performing life by rote. Stop! Open your mind and your heart. Adopt and attitude to help your fellow man. We are all one in the community and should not feel isolated. Be reasonable in your service to others not all of humanity is kind. Kindness has disappeared in the world today. We could almost be classified as Human Unkind.

     Learn to meditate, if you are quarantined then you have time to learn.

Nineteen: Journey to Self-Realization

      VISIONS OF INDIA: EVOLVING THE HIGHER SELF

          The man of sacred selfishness counts all his consequent earthly losses as sacrifices deliberately and willingly brought about by himself for others' good, and for his own great and ultimate gain. He lives to love his brethren, for he knows they are all children of the one God. His entire selfishness is sacred, for whenever he thinks of himself, he thinks not of the small body and mind of ordinary understanding, but of the needs of all bodies and minds within the range of his acquaintance or influence. His "self" becomes the Self of all. He becomes the mind and feeling of all creatures. So when he does anything for himself, he can only do that which is good for all. He who considers himself as one whose body and limbs consist of all humanity and all creatures certainly finds the Universal All-Pervading Spirit as himself. 

       "He sees truly who perceives the Supreme Lord present equally in all creatures, the Imperishable amidst the perishing....When a man beholds all separate beings as existent in the One that has expanded Itself into the many, he then merges with Brahma" (Bhagavad Gita XII:27, 30).

~ Sri Paramahansa Yogananda,

Journey to Self-Realization


     There is only the Journey to Self-Realization that should concern you. All other efforts are futile in life. The quest for wealth, material possessions or fame is really irrelevant. All these things become secondary once your desire for self-realization becomes activated. Follow in the Masters footsteps seeking enlightenment and awareness. It is a worthwhile journey of spirit, mind and soul.
