A man of detachment has no desire. Of what use is action to such a man whose sole aim is the realization of truth? He alone is entitled to a life of action, who is still attached to action but unattached to its fruits. It will help him to attain purity of mind. One who is pure of mind, and whose mind is ever fixed in the thought of Brahman and who revels in it needs [to] follow no rules of action. He who has attained purity of mind does not turn his mind to action, which produces a state of turmoil. Source: Ishvara Darshan d His Holiness Swami Chinmayananda Actions are the louder expression of thoughts. The quality of thought is ordered by the nature of our inner belief and faith. Actions are nothing but the actor’s thoughts projected and expressed in and through him. The secret of action is to get established in equanimity, renouncing all egocentric attachments, forgetting to worry over successes and failures. Every action motivated by egocentric desires thickens the veil of ignorance and permits not even a single ray of our essential Divinity to peep through to illumine the Life in us. Source: Chinmaya Uvacha d His Holiness Swami Tejomayananda The individual cannot have any right or might apart from the total. The part cannot exist apart from the whole. Hence, from the Lord alone do we get the capacity to desire, know, and act. Before acting, if we keep this in mind, then apart from Him, how can we have any doership? He alone acts through us. We thus see that action, done with egocentric desires, binds man. When actions are performed with the understanding that the Lord is the Governor of all actions . and the Giver of all results . the mind becomes purified since vasanas are [being] exhausted, and such a mind becomes an aid to liberate man.

  • 1 EDUCATION New Dimensions PUBLISHERS' NOTE Swami
    EDUCATION New Dimensions PUBLISHERS' NOTE Swami Vivekananda declares that education is the panacea for all our evils. According to him `man-making' or `character-building' education alone is real education. Keeping this end in view, the centres of the Ramakrishna Math and the Ramakrishna Mission have been running a number of institutions solely or partly devoted to education. The Ramakrishna Math of Bangalore (known earlier as Sri Ramakrishna Ashrama) started the `Sri Ramakrishna Vidyarthi Mandiram' in 1943, as a hostel for college boys wherein the inculcating of moral and spiritual values in the minds of the inmates was given the primary importance. The hostel became popular very soon and the former inmates who are now occupying important places in public life, still remember their life at the hostel. In 1958, the Vidyarthi Mandiram was shifted to its own newly built, spacious and well- designed, premises. In 1983, the Silver Jubilee celebrations were held in commemoration of this event. During that period a Souvenir entitled ``Education: New Dimensions'' was brought out. Very soon, the copies were exhausted. However, the demand for the same, since it contained many original and thought-provoking articles, went on increasing. We are now bringing it out as a book with some modifications. Except the one article of Albert Einstein which has been taken from an old journal, all the others are by eminent monks of the Ramakrishna Order who have contributed to the field of education, in some way or the other. We earnestly hope that all those interested in the education of our younger generation, especially those in the teaching profession, will welcome this publication and give wide publicity to the ideas contained in it.

Chinmaya Lahari While Shiva dances, His matted locks hold the sacred river Ganga, the power and the source of all movement in life, with its waters that purify mankind and the crescent moon delicate as a new-born babe with its promise of life in all its radiance and glory. What is perhaps most significant of all in the image is the combination of this God ascetic, the solitary One, master of meditation, with the frenzied dance - the Yogi and the artist. A dancer becomes the being that he impersonates on the stage. In the dance are aroused the entire energy of body, mind, intellect and soul.. It is a complete surrender to God. While the body moves in a frenzy, like the world with its tumult, Shiva Himself, is undisturbed by the activity, depicting most wonderfully the mortal life and Divine Self.

Fu papa Onorio IV (1286-1287) a inaugurare in occidente lo studio delle lingue orientali e precisamente ebraico, greco e arabo; aveva studiato all'Università di Parigi prima di intraprendere la carriera diplomatica al servizio del papa Clemente IV (1265-1268), che lo inviò a celebrare l'investitura di Charles d'Anjou come re di Sicilia.

    Shivoham – Mahashivarathri 2020 With love and gratitude, I offer myself at the divine lotus feet of our dearest loving Lord, Bhagawan Shri Sathya Sai Baba who is Sarvadevataathitaswarupa (beyond all divine names and forms). Dear brothers and sisters, loving Sairam to all of you. I wish all of you a happy and holy Mahashivarathri filled with love, peace and divine bliss. We are really blessed and fortunate to have been the contemporaries of this living Kali Yuga Avatar, Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba. 1 Sathya Sai Baba Reveals His True Identity In His infinite love and compassion, Swami revealed His divinity in His discourse on May 17, 1968 at the First World Conference in Mumbai. He said, “this is the human form in which all the divine names and forms attributed by man to God are manifest”. That means He is the embodiment of all divine forms. Over many decades, many people have seen in Swami the vision of Shiva, Shakti, Shiva-Shakti, Buddha, Jesus, Rama, Krishna, Hanuman, and many forms and names. All names and forms dwell in Him. So, I would say He is all in one, and He is the one in all. He is the indweller in all beings in the world. That's why we say He is also all in all, and ultimately, He is beyond all. I therefore address Him as Sarvadevataathitaswarupa. Sarvadevataswarupa means embodiment of all divine forms. Sarvadevataathitaswarupa means beyond all divine names and forms. There was a devotee named Peddabottu. She had composed some lyrics on Swami's glory – how wonderful He is, and that He is Shiva.
