Give No Leniency To Mind

Mere hearing of eloquent valuable spiritual lectures will not do in the spiritual path. You
will have to act according to them. You will have to give your whole heart, mind and soul to
practice. Then only you will have progress in the path.
Follow the instructions of your master and the teachings of the scriptures to the very letter.
Give no leniency to the mind. Exact, implicit, strict obedience to the instructions is expected of you.
Do not fight for rights. Think more about your duties and less about your rights. These rights
are worthless. It is wasting of time and energy. Assert your birthright of God-consciousness.
Realise this and become wise.
From "Light, Power and Wisdom" by Swami Sivananda (1987-1963). More Informations on Swami Sivananda: on the Website of Divine Life Society, Photographs of Swami Sivananda, German Pages on Swami Sivananda
