Be Regular In Your Sadhana

Keep a balanced mind always. Be cheerful and happy. Drive the feelings of depression and
gloom at once by enquiry, singing Divine songs, prayers, chanting of Om, Pranayama, a brisk walk
in the open air and thinking of the opposite quality viz., the feeling of joy. You will be happy.
Apply yourself diligently to Yoga. Employ your skill and promptness. Kill the thoughts and
desires. Do not become a fatalist. Stand like a lion. Exert. Aspire. You will attain independence.
Steady the mind. Fix it on the Lord. Plod on patiently like the farmer at his plough. Be
persevering. This is real Sadhana. Be regular in your Sadhana. This will give you freedom, bliss,
peace and immortality.
