Self Realization

Srimad Bhagavatam

When the devotee sits in a secluded place and recites the word OM which is GOD, and tries to understand the meaning of the word, his mind and his Prana comes under his control.

Once the mind is in control the senses come under the devotee’s control and thus ultimately the devotee starts meditating on God.

Once the devotee gets into deep meditation he experiences a peace and transcendental bliss which is actually the abode of Lord Vishnu.

Even when the mind wanders away again thanks to the forces of passion and ignorance, the devotee should try to bring it back through practice and perseverance. The yogis of yore have perfected this art through endless efforts.

Though a wise man lives in the society he is not attached to its material things. Nature supplies him with whatever he needs and he is happy with what comes to him unasked.

God resides within every one of us. We should take a giant leap inward, and meditate on the lord within.
