Keep The Mind Fully Occupied

Understand fully the aim and purpose of life. Yield not to temptations. Develop virtuous
qualities like humility, forgiveness, tolerance, etc. Wish eagerly and fervently to attain
God-consciousness. Have faith, interest and attention. You are bound to succeed.
Conserve all energy and utilise it for higher spiritual achievements in life. Purify. Be just.
Be true. Be sincere in your attempts. Respect all prophets and saints. You will shine as a dynamic
Yogi.
Keep the mind fully occupied. Sing the name of the Lord. Twirl the beads. Study the
scriptures. Think of God and meditate upon Him with true devotion and feeling and merge in Him.
This is the goal of life.
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
