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

Controlling the mind is the way to attain internal harmony.

Our attitude should be: Whatever happens I will remain strong, courageous and happy.

Children should observe a regular schedule for sleeping and waking up.

If we have some pet animals, we should feed them also before taking our food. Perceive God in every living being and feed them with that attitude.

Everyone in the world should sleep without fear at least for one night, sleep without fear. Everyone in the world should eat to their fill, at least for one day, eat to their fill. There should be one day when there is no violence, no one is injured, no one is harmed. All people young and old should serve the poor and needy, at least for one day serve selflessly. This is my dream....this is my prayer. Love is the answer, love is the way. Love is the answer, love is the way.

You can lead a truly spiritual life while remaining a householder. You will be able to enjoy the bliss of the Self, but your mind has to be on God all the time. Then you can easily attain bliss. A mother bird will be thinking of the young ones in the nest, even when she is out looking for food. Similarly, you have to keep your mind on God, while engaged in all worldly actions. The important thing is to be completely dedicated to God or the Guru. Once you have that dedication, the goal will not be far away.
