==================================================================================== Thursday 26, September 2024, 05:30. 3684 / Article Yoga & Mediation Sadhana is the Universalisation of Consciousness: 1. Swami Krishnananda. (Brahma muhurta lecture on Guru Purnima, July 14, 1968) ==================================================================================== It is easier to fast for many days than to eat moderately daily, and it is easier to have complete Mauna than to speak sweetly, because in these steps we go to an extreme and miss the golden mean. This is also true in the case of sadhana. We go into an exuberance rather than be sober persons of self-possessedness. The extreme seems to be easier.

============================================================================== 1.#Opinion : Thursday 26, September 2024, 05:30. 3684 / 2. #On the Concept of Righteousness and Justice -8. Swami Krishnananda. // ============================================================================== The ethical or what are known as moral laws, also, stand by this test of spirit ruling the letter, intention standing above routine or outer form.
