Self Realization

Remember that as long as you are suffering from false ego, you will keeping thinking that you are the doer of all the things done by you. To be happy you should believe that you are not the doer.

Remember that when you burn down the forest of ignorance within you with the fire of certitude, you will realize that you are one pure consciousness and you will at once become happy.

Remember that you are that superconsciousness on which the whole universe is superimposed. Remember this all the time and be happy.

Remember that he who considers himself free becomes free and the one who thinks that he is bound gets bound. So always think that you are free and be happy.

Remember that the self is the witness all pervading, perfect, non dual, free consciousness. actionless, unattached, desireless and quiet. Through illusion it appears as if it is absorbed in the world.

Self Realization

Remember that when you begin to think that you are the doer, you get perplexed. But when you realize that you are not the doer, you become blissful and happy.

Remember that when you burn down the forest of ignorance with the certitude that you are not the doer, you at once become happy.

Remember that the knowledge that you gather through your intellect is material, ever changing and false. It teaches you about the cause effect relationship, and about the world of time and space. But the knowledge that you gather after you go within and recognize your original entity as the self, is permamnent, non dual and never changing.

Remember that the inetllect that takes you to the altar of your self, is serene and purified.

Remember that the knowledge that you gather with your senses, mind and intelligence is because of the consciousness that illuminates all that is around you.

Remember that consciousness-of- objects devoid of all objects is Pure consciousness ie. pure knowledge. 

Self Realization

Remember that there is no harm in possessing things, but the problem arises when things begin to possess us.
Similarly if we control our body equipments and use them accordingly there is no harm. But if the body equipments begin to control us then we get into trouble.

Remember that you do not belong to any caste race or creed. Similarly you do not belong to any ashrama. You are forever the non dual ever efflugent self. You are not perceivable by the senses. You are unattached, formless and the sole witness of all that you are and all that happens within you and outside you.

Remember that virtue and vice, happiness and distress are all attributes of the mind and not of the self.

Remember that the ego in us thinks that we are the doers and the enjoyers. The self is neither the doer nor the enjoyer. And as you are the self so be ever happy and blissful.

Remember that the consciousness in you is the light that helps the equipments of the body function. This consciousness is the sole perceiver, the sole seer, and the sole witness of all that happens around the world.

Remember that the self is the only subject and that everything else belongs to the world of objects.

Self Realization

Remember that to liberate yourself from the delusory sorrows of the body and the mind, you should learn to experience the self within yourself.

Remember that the consciousness within illuminates all our experiences on the physical as well as the mental level.

Remember that though the self illuminates all our experiences, it is not a part of them just like the sun that illuminates every thing in the earth but forever remains detached from the objects it illuminates.

Remember that when through meditation, you withdraw yourself from the gross, subtle and causal bodies, you come to realize the self. At that moments all the vasanas, get burnt, dried up and fall away.
  
Remember that when you detach yourself from the body and abide in the consciousness, you at once become happy.

Self Realization

Remember that angry revengfulness results in endless distrurbances in our mind which are negative and which hinder in our spiritual growth.

Remember that straightforwardness gives us a clear conscience.

Remember that by being cheerful we enjoy a calm and poised mind.

Remember that truthfullness, that is spiritual honesty,  is a prerequisite for self realization.

Remember that to think in one way and to to act differently hurts our psyche and harms us internally.

Remember that spiritual development and higher meditation is possible only for a totally integrated inner personality.

Remember that if you detach yourself from the body and abide in spiritual consciousness you will at once become happy, cheerful and blissful. 

Self Realization

Remember that you are neither ether, nor air, nor fire, nor water nor earth. You are neither the gross, nor the subtle nor the causal body. You are eseential the spirit soul that is a witness to all that is happening within you and outside you. Be stationed in that spirit soul and you would attain eternal bliss, and happiness because this way you will attain god.

Remember that if you aspire for liberation you should discard objects of the sense as poison and accept truth, forgiveness, starightforwardness, kindness and cheerfulness like nectar.

Remember that mind is " incessant flow of  thoughts." The more the thought flow the more restless we become. Hence all those qualities that stop this thought flow should be cultivated and all those qualities that agitate the mind should be rejected. 

Remember that objects of senses are all around us and it is very difficult for us as ordinary mortals to escape them. And as long as we are attached to these sense objects it would be impossible for us to attain liberation. The mind is so powerful that even if it is in a cave in the himalayas it has the capacity to agitate itself through its thought proecss. Hence we should always try to make this mind devoid of any thought that would would drag us back to this life of duality.

Self Realization

Remember that God has created you in his own beautiful form because he wants you to love him and go back to him.

Remember that God is as distressed by your plight as you are. And all the distress that you are going through is because you have forgotten your eternal identity as a part and parcel of the supreme personality of godhead.

Remember that you can not become Brahman-- because, you are already Brahman. You were always the blissful soul. It is your own confusion and the layers of ignorance created by that confusion, that prevent you from recognizing your true self.

Remember that all the great saints, monks, rishis, maharishis, mahatmas, and the great souls were also like you in their initial births. It is because of their perseverance, patience and perpetual search within themselves for their ultimate identity, that they reached such exalted positions. 

Self Realization

Remember that neither Birth nor Death is an accident. Your are born according to your past karma. What ever you had done before was recorded by your soul and the present birth is based on your deeds, desires, achievements, thoughts, ideas, fears, and aims in the past.

As for example I was born on a particular date, time and  place in a particular family, under particular circumstances because as per my past karma, these factors were most conducive towards my journey towards the ultimate goal that is the supreme personality of Godhead. I picked up in this birth from where I had left before, and now in this birth I shall take a few steps further  towards the ultimate goal.

Remember that though God is present as the supersoul within us, he gives us all the freedom in the world to shape and live our lives as per our thoughts and desires. He acts as a mute spectator to our deeds till we ourselves take the initiative to beg him for help and guidance. God is like the loving and caring parent who allows the child to play and enjoy itself till it gets tired and cries for help. As soon as we do so he extends his hand to hold ours and then he guides us through the paths of this material world.

Self Realization

Remember that self realization means just that- "SELF" Realization. It is meant to help you realize your "self".

Remember that every one of us is a walking talking universe. There is nothing in this universe that is unavailable within you.

Remember that the best and the worst characters are avaialble within you. It is the perpetual fight between them that is called the MAHABHARATHA.

Dharmakhshetra Kurukshetra is your own body. It is not a patch of land in Haryana. Our body

Kurukshetra is known as Dharmakshetra because the soul and the supersoul are present within.
Remember that the Mahabharatha within you is a perpetual fight between the positive and negative forces within you. This war never ends and the victory of one over the other in the endless battles decides your nature, your behaviousr, your decisions etc after every battle.

Remember that there is no end to self improvement. And there is no age to begin self improvement.
