CULTIVATE SERENITY

Be serene and tranquil under all circumstances. cultivate this virtue-tranquillity again and again through constant endeavor.
Serenity is like a rock. Waves of irritation may dash on it but cannot affect it. Meditate daily on the ever-tranquil Atman. The Divine Light will descend on a calm mind only. Only an aspirant with a calm mind can enter into deep meditation and Samadhi. The upward path to goodness is very difficult, thorny and precipitous.

From "Daily Sayings" 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
