What is the surest way to experience the Divine within?
Develop strong faith. That will confer all spiritual experiences.
The Scriptures declare: Arise from the slumber of ignorance and go forward towards awareness of the Self.
Whatever other beliefs you may cherish or not, have firm faith in the Divine.
All things in the world are liable to perish. The Self alone is eternal and changeless.
It is unfortunate that the vast majority of mankind leads mundane lives forgetting Him. Make Him the foundation of your life.
Carry on your normal duties. Duty is Divine. Work is worship. Spiritualise all your actions and treat whatever happens as actions for your good.
Learn to experience perennial bliss by seeking union with the Divine. Never forget Him.
Do not go after the things of the world. Have no fear of death. When your life is rooted in these three maxims, you will realise the Atman (Inner-Self).
- Divine Discourse, Oct 09, 1997.
Whatever things you may possess, whatever amenities you may enjoy, only faith in the Divine, will confer real peace of mind.
