Pray for a peaceful and contented mind in all circumstances.

Transcending the cycle of death and rebirth is the real purpose of this life in human form.

Don't be discouraged by your incapacity to dispel darkness from the world. Light your little candle and step forward.

Pray: O Lord, make my eyes see only the good in everyone.

No matter who causes you grief, take your complaints to the meditation room, where your real friend is. In addition to your husband or wife, you should have a friend - and that friend should be God. Even if your husband or wife makes you unhappy, tell that to God, and not to anyone else. If your neighbor picks a fight with you, go to the meditation room and complain, 'Why did you let him treat me like that? Weren't you with me?' Open your heart and tell God everything. Then it becomes a satsang.

Try to spend at least 2 or 3 days every month in an ashram. Just breathing the pure air there will purify and strengthen our bodies and minds. Like recharging the batteries, even after returning home we will be able to continue our meditation and japa.

The relation between husband and wife should turn into a love of the heart untouched by desire.
