One must develop a pure unsullied mind,
unsullied by egoism and its progeny---
lust, greed, envy, anger, hatred and the rest.
For this, you must seek good company,
perform good deeds, entertain only
good thoughts and read good books.
You may see a thousand good things
or listen to a thousand good words
or read a thousand good books---
but unless you put at least one into practice,
the blemishes in the mirror of your heart will not be wiped off.
The Lord cannot be reflected therein.
Constant practice with full faith will
transmute man into God; for God is your real nature,
God is your real essence. You are
but a wave of the sea; know it, and you are free.

Sow in the field of your heart

irrigate with waters of love;
protect the growing crop
with fertilizer concentration;
then the plants of devotion will
yield the harvest of the eternal wisdom,

you become he, for, you were always he,
though you did not know it so far.

he cannot be free from sorrow.
He will be respected by all only
when he gives up anger.
One with greed can never attain happiness.
Man can be happy and make others happy

Action and reaction... read and understand this story...
Action and reaction.
An emperor in the Far East was growing old
and knew it was time to choose his successor.
Instead of choosing one of his assistants
or his children, he decided something different.
He called young people in the kingdom
together one day. He said, "It is time for me
to step down and choose the next emperor.
I have decided to choose one of you."
The kids were shocked!
But the emperor continued.
"I am going to give each one of you a seed today.
One very special seed. I want you to plant the seed,
water it and come back here after one year from today
with what you have grown from this one seed.
I will then judge the plants that you bring,
and the one I choose will be the next emperor!"
One boy named Ling was there that day
and he, like the others, received a seed.
He went home and excitedly
told his mother the story. She helped him
get a pot and planting soil, and he planted
the seed and watered it carefully.
Every day he would water it and
watch to see if it had grown.
After about three weeks,
some of the other youths began
to talk about their seeds and the plants
that were beginning to grow.
Ling kept checking his seed,
but nothing ever grew. 3 weeks, 4 weeks,
5 weeks went by. Still nothing. By now,
others were talking about their plants
but Ling didn't have a plant, and he felt like a failure.
Six months went by, still nothing in Ling's pot.
He just knew he had killed his seed.
Everyone else had trees and tall plants,
but he had nothing.
Ling didn't say anything to his friends, however.
He just kept waiting for his seed to grow.
A year finally went by and all the youths
of the kingdom brought their plants to the emperor for inspection.
Ling told his mother that he wasn't going to take an empty pot.
But honest about what happened, Ling felt sick to his stomach,
but he knew his mother was right. He took his empty pot to the palace.
When Ling arrived, he was amazed at the variety
of plants grown by the other youths.
They were beautiful in all shapes and sizes.
Ling put his empty pot on the floor and many
of the other kinds laughed at him.
A few felt sorry for him and just said,
"Hey nice try."
When the emperor arrived,
he surveyed the room and greeted the young people.
Ling just tried to hide in the back. "
What great plants, trees and flowers you have grown," said the emperor.
"Today, one of you will be appointed the next emperor!"
All of a sudden, the emperor spotted Ling at the back of the room with his empty pot.
He ordered his guards to bring him to the front.
Ling was terrified. "The emperor knows I'm a failure!
Maybe he will have me killed!" When Ling got to the front,
the Emperor asked his name. "My name is Ling," he replied.
All the kids were laughing and making fun of him.
The emperor asked everyone to quiet down.
He looked at Ling, and then announced to the crowd,
"Behold your new emperor! His name is Ling!"
Ling couldn't believe it. Ling couldn't even grow his seed.
How could he be the new emperor? Then the emperor said,
"One year ago today, I gave everyone here a seed.
I told you to take the seed, plant it, water it,
and bring it back to me today.
But I gave you all boiled seeds, which would not grow.
All of you, except Ling, have brought me trees and plants and flowers.
When you found that the seed would not grow,
Ling was the only one with the courage and honesty
to bring me a pot with my seed in it. Therefore,
he is the one who will be the new emperor!"
If you plant honesty, you will reap trust.
If you plant goodness, you will reap friends.
If you plant humility, you will reap greatness.
If you plant perseverance, you will reap victory.
If you plant consideration, you will reap harmony.
If you plant hard work, you will reap success.
If you plant forgiveness, you will reap reconciliation.
If you plant openness, you will reap intimacy.
If you plant patience, you will reap improvements.
If you plant faith, you will reap miracles.
So let us be careful what we plant now,
It will determine what we will reap tomorrow,
That is to say, the seeds we now scatter,
will make life worse or better.
Yes, someday, you will enjoy the fruits,
or you will pay for the choices you plant today.

God tests man, so you must welcome tests. Tests are only for giving you greater grace. They are not to be treated as punishments...
You must cultivate the same attitude
towards God's commands and instructions.
Be convinced that if you obey them strictly,
you will attain victory.
One evening Krishna took Arjuna
far out of Dwarka City and while
they were alone together,
He pointed at a bird flying over their heads and asked him,
"Arjuna, isn't it a dove?" Arjuna agreed; he said it was a dove.
Suddenly, Krishna turned towards him
and said, "No, it is a crow." Arjuna concurred and said,
"I am sorry, it certainly is a crow." Immediately,
Krishna asked him, "A crow, no, it must be a kite. Is it not so?"
and Arjuna promptly agreed, "Yes. It is a kite."
At this, Krishna smiled and asked Arjuna,
"Are you in your senses? What exactly do you see?
Why you say, of the same bird, it is a dove,
it must be a crow and it is a kite?" Arjuna said,
"Who am I to dispute your statement?
You can make it a crow even
if it is not one, or, change it into a kite.
I have found that the safest thing is to agree with you,
in full faith. I know of no other course."
It was only after this test, for unflinching faith
that Krishna assured Himself of the credentials
of Arjuna to receive the Geetha advice.T
he inquiry about the identity of the bird was a test.

The illumination of discrimination
will remove the darkness which hides the Divine essence of Man.

It is better to substitute good thoughts for the bad and cleanse the mind of all evil by dwelling on righteous deeds and holy thoughts. Forget the things that you do not want to remember. Bring to memory only those things that are worth remembering. That is the sane way to achieve spiritual progress.
