How to motivate ourselves in Meditation

The first thing: for a patient to go to the doctor we must make him realize that he is sick; otherwise there is no need to go to the doctor.Do we remember when we laughed from our very hearts? We have become robots – we do things because they have to be done but there is no joy in doing them. We are living an accidental life.

Follow your Spiritual Guru with Insight

There are too many preachers and spiritual leaders propagating various methods – we might just lose precious time before realizing we have not reached anywhere. A little peace, slightly better health may have been achieved – no where near to your inner self.We could get totally confused and lose precious time in trying the extensive ways offered to us. Could become a mix (khichdi) of the wrong kind. We in our innocence having spent so much time doing various sadhanas (methods) wait for...
