By letting the mind expand in the sound of divine chanting (such as devotional music), each one can enjoy the peace born of one's inherent divinity.
Life should be like a pleasure trip. When we see a beautiful sight, a pretty house, or a flower on the way, we look at it and enjoy it. We enjoy the sights but we do not linger there, we simply move on.
Even if we have everything, if there is no mental peace, we cannot lead a happy life.
How to attain concentration? There are no short cuts. Constant practice is needed. In the beginning, it is a great thing if by chance we get even one or two minutes of concentration in an hour. We should make continuous and sincere effort without stopping until we gain one pointed concentration.
What is to be done in order to obtain peace? We should live our life understanding and discriminating between the eternal and the non-eternal.
A true relationship is possible only when one is able to let go of all preconceived ideas and prejudices, and one when stops being possessed by the past.
Ask yourself, "Why can't I just smile and be happy?" As long as we carry the burden of the past, we cannot genuinely smile.
Through spiritual thoughts, we cultivate inner strength and a strong mind. God represents all good qualities, such as self-sacrifice, love and compassion.
