The way to begin to spiritualize one’s life is through meditation and contemplation. Think about it. What you think about you bring about; to an extent. Certainly, when you are thinking of God, in a silent environment you are aligning yourself with His energy. Silence is the sound of God in creation. This is why […]

Saints and Sages are those who are able to recognize we are all Gods children. They see God in all of us. They know that God is acting through all of us to experience that. The Unlimited is having the experience of the Limited….

We Can Change the World by Changing Ourselves…Mrinalina Mata (disciple of Paramahansa Yoganada) She also has said…”The truly contented are the saints and sages: they have learned to create, right within themselves, a kingdom of happiness, a fortress of unshakable peace and security, a temple of divine communion at the feet of God.” Believe when […]
