What is Our Essence - Vedic Meditation Thought for the Day http://conta.cc/1M8g90f

What is our essence? What is it in us that is invariable? Certainly not our thoughts or our feelings. The very nature of thought is its movement from one thing to another to another, each new thought triggering the possibility of a hundred more; and, what I think about a given subject is going to ch…

Back to Basics II - Vedic Meditation Thought for the Day http://conta.cc/1IFxfju

When you know beyond all doubting that the same life flows through all that is and you are that life, you will love all naturally and spontaneously.

Back to Basics - Vedic Meditation Thought for the Day http://conta.cc/1LXVASp

In our study of the world of spirit, we find absolutely that it is not the facts of our life that cause us to be happy or sad, but rather our point of view on those facts. Time and again we may worry, worry, worry about something, then one day find our self no longer worrying, even though nothing ha…

Imperfection - Vedic Meditation Thought for the Day http://conta.cc/1KFME5A

Most people spend their whole lives using their strengths to cover up and hide their weaknesses. They expend tremendous energy in keeping themselves a house divided.

Learning to Read Poetry - Vedic Meditation Thought for the Day http://conta.cc/1KEsh61

How does the ordinary person come to the transcendent? For a start, I would say, study poetry. Learn how to read a poem. You need not have the experience to get the message, or at least some indication of the message. It may come gradually.

Love Everything - Vedic Meditation Thought for the Day http://conta.cc/1MyHecX

There is one sure way to achieve enlightenment. I have written it before, but it cannot be stated too many times. Love everything, all the time. Love everyone all the time. It may take awhile, or it could happen in an afternoon. But if practiced, it is certain to take us all the way to God.

The Creation of the World - Vedic Meditation Thought for the Day http://conta.cc/1IretvV

The Aitareya Upanishad is one of the clearest tellings of the creation myth of the Vedic culture. It is beautifully told, and fascinating when we see the parallels in it to the stories we have in Judeo-Christian mythology.

The Illusion of Romance - Vedic Meditation Thought for the Day http://conta.cc/1D7AG1y

Is romance based first on illusion, and then the illusion wears off and now you both look raggedy because you see how it [really] is? Or was the love the reality? Which is which? I always think it's the opposite of the way the world sees it. I think when you first see that person and flash on them,…

Interrupting the Pattern - Vedic Meditation Thought for the Day http://conta.cc/1OvvwNM

There are people who are in our life day after day. Parents, children, spouses, bosses, co-workers. These people know where our buttons are.

Sachchidananda - Existence, Consciousness, Bliss - Vedic Meditation Thought for the Day http://conta.cc/1MrAmgj

He is the sun dwelling in the bright heavens. He is the air dwelling in the interspace. He is the fire dwelling on earth. He is the guest dwelling in the house. He dwells in men, in the gods, in truth, in the sky. He is born in the water, on earth, in the sacrifice, on the mountains. He is the True…

The Guest House - Vedic Meditation Thought for the Day http://conta.cc/1TYjhwJ

Modern day studies of the mind and the whole system of feelings, emotions and moods we humans are subject to show us that we often times are at the mercy of feedback systems in which a certain thought will lead to a feeling that will then cause more thought, which in turn will cause even further mov…
