You have seen a rusty wire. If you touch it, it is cold. Take this wire and plug it into the socket of the electrical connection and then touch it.You will get an immediate shock of electricity. Do you know why? The electricity from the socket was flowing into the rusty wire and charged it. This example explains the relationship between the master and the disciple, and also between the body and the soul. An ordinary person, living in the company of the holy master, is transformed and his life is charged with divine current. Similarly, when one plugs the wire of his mind into the socket of the soul, then his mind and body are charged with divinity.

The holy man patted his head and calmly told him, "My child, do not despair. Tell the goblin to dig a well to draw water. When he is finished, have him attach seven rungs on each side, like a ladder that one can use to go up and down. Instruct the goblin to go down the seven rungsand then come up the seven rungs, continuously, until you tell him to stop."

Hence the man hurriedly made his way back to the goblin, who by now had grown quite impatient. He immediately repeated what the holy man told him to say. The goblin followed the orders it was given, and from that time on it never troubled the man again.

When Swami Shriyukteshwarji told this story, he explained that the goblin in the story is none other than the mind. The mind needs some activities; it needs to be constantly busy. If you do not keep the mind engaged, like the goblin in the story, it will make your life miserable. It is not healthy to allow the mind to do whatever it wants. Therefore, keep the mind busy watching the breath come up and down the centres in the spine -- and it will not have time to cause you any trouble.

Steadiness of body. Steadiness of mind. Steadiness of breath. Steadiness of gaze. Steadiness of understanding. These are the areas in which we should practice steadiness in daily life.
To experience the steadiness of our true existence, we must realize the immortal soul. The soul is always steady. The body is unsteady. The one who observes from within the movement of the body is the witnessing consciousness, which is unmovable and unchangeable. The one who is the witness cannot be affected by the ever-changing body, nor by the ever-changing world.

The goal of Shri Hanuman, as entrusted to him by Lord Rama, was to find Mother Sita and convey the Lord's message to her.

That is also the goal of life -- to have the darshan (vision) of the Divine Mother in the form of Mother Sita, the personification of peace, devotion, and knowledge. She is the source of strength and power in life.

How is this possible? It is achievable through satsanga (good company), Swadhyaya ( correct attitude through the practical application of knowledge), seva (selfless service) and sadhana (following the path directed by the realized).

Sri Hanuman is immortal. But aren't we also immortal souls? Are we aware of this?

To inherit our immortality, we must become close to God and please the Divine through our lives of dutifulness and spiritual discipline. Pleasing Shri Hanuman is not a difficult task. Simply sing Lord Rama's name or 'Sita-Rama' ; it makes him full of grace. He will rescue a seeker in difficulty and distress. Shri Hanuman is always eager to draw a devotees mind towards the Lord. Shri Hanuman helps people in need. Since his incarnation Shr Hanuman has always been loved and adored.

Shri Hanuman will love us deeply when we live in soul consciousness and when we love everything as the presence of Lord Rama and Mother Sita.

The 'Simple Prayer' of Saint Francis says, "O Lord, make me an instrument of thy peace." I am an instrument, but who is the operator? My body is an instrument, but who is breathing? Can the nose say that it is breathing? Can the lungs say that they are breathing? Who is breathing? A dead man has lungs and a nose, and air surrounds the nose, yet the dead man is not breathing. Can anyone rightfully claim that he or she is breathing? When we are sleeping, who is breathing? The power of God hides in each one of us, making our bodies active, alive and beautiful, helping each one of us to be dynamic. Unfortunately, we do not remember that everything is accomplished through the power of God; instead, we believe that we are the doers. If we organise an event, we think, " I set the time and picked the place; I invited the people; I led the discussion." We take the credit for doing all these things. But in truth, nothing can be accomplished without the power of God, the living power that animates creation.

A donkey mind loves to collect things. It collects many shoes, many clothes, many objects -- in fact; it collects anything and everything, including money. But for what? Just to keep, keep, keep, keep. Many people try to fill the void in their lives with material possessions. However, such an attempt is just a meaningless waste of their precious time. One day they may sadly discover, no matter how much they have acquired, it will never be enough. When I travel and stay in others' homes, I see all the clothes hanging in their closets. I wonder why they feel they need so many. People collect and keep things, fearing they will lose something if they let them go. In a sense this is true; they will lose the responsibility and work required to care for so many possessions. In reality, their loss is really a gain.

Good company will make you good and noble. Good company will encourage you to practice spiritual discipline regularly. God is your best servant. He serves you day and night. God is everywhere and sound is everywhere. God is all-pervading. God's love is eternal. Only if you desire to know about the glory of God. The power of God is in you, but you are deluded. Be like Lahiri Baba, Sanyal Mahashaya. Live in the world, be with your family, but maintain your divine state. In your own family, feel that God is in all. Love all and serve all.Try to remember that the whole world is one family.

Yoga, which perfects the art of living, helps us to discipline our lives, and even changes our attitude towards others and the entire universe, to one of love and compassion. When we are in the world, we live both as individuals as well as part of a community, so we should respect others as an integral part of our own existence. Whether we know it or not, we are always directly or indirectly dependent on the help of others. Life can never be completely personal or self-centered. We influence the life of others, just as we are influenced by the lives of others. Human life gives us the opportunity to live a life of healthy relationships and positive interactions, not just with human beings, but also with all other life forms in the world. Yoga systematically teaches us how to live with others with a positive outlook and loving spirit.
