*  Deepavali - A Festival of  Light ,  Joy & Illumination (October 26,  
2011) ***


"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.
He who Himself sees all but whom no one beholds, who illumines the 
intellect, the sun, the moon and the stars and the whole universe but 
whom they cannot illumine, He indeed is Brahman, He is the inner Self. 
Celebrate the real Deepavali by living in Brahman, and enjoy the eternal 
bliss of the soul." - Swami Sivananda

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


*We Live in  a Friendly World *- "We live in a friendly world in which 
everything that exists is eager to assist us. Everything seen, heard, 
touched, tasted, smelled, thought about, imagined are all eager to help 
in our** evolution. As a matter of fact, they are not only there to help 
evolution, but you have been put here amidst them in order to assist and 
achieve your own evolution unto perfection. Everything wishes to help 
us; all things are part of our evolution.This is the Truth ".........

" Fire is indispensable in the kitchen; otherwise, we cannot cook food. 
A sharp knife is also indispensable for cutting the vegetables. And if 
we use the indispensable factors of fire and steel with caution, they 
will help us, and we will benefit from them day in, day out, year after 
year.".......

"Pondering this truth, one will behold the world as God, behold the 
world as angelic and not demonic. And it will arouse in one a great joy, 
a great hope, a great feeling of gratitude, a great feeling of 
friendliness to all life around, for all things around, animate and 
inanimate. For God made them all and put us amidst them. May this truth 
enlighten your onward march towards the great Goal!" - Swami Chidananda
