Deepavali , A Festival of light, Joy & Illumination ( Nov 3, 2010 - Nov, 
6, 2010 )



"O man! wake up from the slumber of ignorance. Realise the constant and 
eternal light of the Soul which neither rises nor sets, through 
meditation and deep inquiry.

  .....Celebrate the real Deepavali by living in Brahman, and enjoy the 
eternal bliss of the soul. The sun does not shine there, nor do the moon 
and the stars, nor do lightnings shine and much less fire. All the 
lights of the world cannot be compared even to a ray of the inner light 
of the Self. Merge yourself in this light of lights and enjoy the 
supreme Deepavali".

*Early Morning Meditation Talks from Ponder These Truths by Sri Swami 
Chidananda

*Arjuna's Complex
*

"Arjuna was not able to liberate himself from himself. He was caught in 
his own view of things, in his own sentiments, in his own emotions, in 
his own reactions. He was caught and he was in a pitiable condition. And 
it required all patience and effort on the part of Jagad-Guru Sri 
Krishna to free Arjuna from himself and to enable him to see himself in 
the right perspective and to be fully and willingly prepared to follow 
the lead of Sri Krishna. Then the problem gradually began to resolve 
itself. Arjuna found that he was able to free himself. From whom? From 
himself. That is the inner /tattva /(truth), outcome, fruit of the 
Gita—not I, not I, but Thou."

"But Arjuna did not yield, did not give up his self-opinion easily. 
Difficult was the task. He made Bhagavan go through sixteen chapters of 
teachings before he finally saw the wisdom. He especially got this 
clarity after the tenth and eleventh chapters. So, deeply one must 
ponder these two chapters. For all of us have within us the situation of 
Arjuna in some way or other. It is the crucial problem of the 
/jivatma/—its unwillingness to renounce itself for a higher light, 
higher wisdom." - Swami Chidananda << More>>

*Divine Inspiration *

    * A good word for a bad one is worth much but costs little. Kindness
      does not consist in gifts, but in gentleness and generosity.

    * Bear no envy. Commit no slander. Speak no falsehood. Practice no
      deceit. Harbor no malice.You will be ever joyful, happy and peaceful.

    * Sacrifice and service are your two hands. Freedom and peace are
      your two legs. Love and bliss are your two eyes. Truth and
      devotion are your two ears. Self- knowledge is your mouth.
      Perfection is, indeed, heart and soul.

    * The Sweetness of life is devotion. The fragrance of life is
      generosity. The pivot of life is meditation . The goal of life is
      Self- Realization.

- Swami Sivananda
