Swami Ji

I have received emails in reaction to yesterday’s diary and I want to thank you for your words. I would like to put one email here:

‘I was just reading Swami Ji's Diary entry for today, 23/04/09, and he's right. I feel the same way, in our present society people are so unreliable and unwilling to love, this compromises our peacefulness. I just want to live my life in love but every time I'm disappointed or hurt its gets even harder to maintain my loving attitude.

It is difficult Swami Ji but as you say with everything else, it’s in the power of the mind. No-one's negative attitude should have the power to affect the choice I've made to be loving and peaceful. Thank you Swami Ji. I'm so grateful I've come across your website and I love you and pray you will keep just as you are, a continuous inspiration.

I don't have any children but I love them so much. You're a good man to do what you're doing. If it's what I think you must get a satisfaction from your good deeds and you don't do it to get satisfaction, if you can understand what I mean. I appreciate that there are people like you all and I pray that you'll continue. Love really is the way.

When I tell people that I have a love for everyone they're skeptical but do you believe that's truly how I feel? I just wish it was easy for everyone to accept love and spread it. Why is that so hard when it’s one of the most wonderful feelings in the world and love would eradicate any problem we face in the world today?’

Dear email writer: I feel your pain with being open to love. it is hard to realize over and over again how unwilling people or to love, but they aren't just unwillling- they are unaware of how to love or that they should. It is not one of the basic things we are taught but it is one of the essential things we need. Keep loving!

Words of Wisdom

  • Ego

    This is what modern society teaches people for their work: You are good if you are the best. You are good if you are the number one. If you are in the higher range, your ego gets artificially boosted so that you perform even better, bringing even more income and profit to the company.

    Source
  • Gurus

    Be your own master. We have enough to do with mastering ourselves and don’t need anybody else whom we can master.

    Source
  • Prayers

    Many people think of God as a very distant, unreachable power. For them God is not close and their prayers are very formal. A prayer is something special and can be in many forms, not only certain words. But you need closeness, your heart should be in your prayer.

    Source
  • Healing

    Everybody is a healer because everybody has the love inside himself to heal. We all are unique but we all are one.

    Source
  • Love

    Love is the most therapeutic energy.

    Source
  • Happiness

    Making an effort to make your loved one happy makes you happy. This is love: you want to make your beloved happy.

    Source
  • Forgiveness

    Forgiveness is the biggest jewel of human life. Everybody needs to have this in their heart, otherwise you burn yourself on the fire of your anger. You need to go through your emotions, but then forgive without hurting the other one. Don't keep that in your heart. Learn to forgive.

    Source
  • Expectations

    Indians have too many expectations on their women!

    Source
  • God

    I won’t have a problem with your god if he says to his devotees ‘Please follow your religion and devotion at your home, not on the road.’

    Source
  • Happiness

    Many poor Indian people are happy and proud even with the little they have. Reduce your needs and learn to be happy with less, even in the abundance of the west.

    Source
  • Religion

    Sometimes religion is like poison. Look at these people who gather others around themselves, making up their own ‘religion’ by interpreting some scripture in their own way and create rules. It steals the freedom of the mind. You need to know yourself what is right for you and everybody has different ideas of what is good or bad, right or wrong.

    Source
  • Happiness

    Most people think they don’t deserve to be happy.

    Source
  • Love

    Making love does not only mean sexual activities. Hug someone, create a lovely atmosphere and just love someone. Letting your love flow is making love for me.

    Source
  • Self-Confidence

    You are the creator of your world. If you want to make yourself small, you can, but you can also realize your strength and see that we are all human, all the same. There is one love and one god for all of us.

    Source
  • Rituals

    Does a soul get more comfort by expensive rituals after death?

    Source
  • Love

    Love should always be unconditional. If there is any condition, it is not really love. If someone leaves because of a condition you don't fulfil, you do not have to feel guilty or have an inferiority complex. Those who really love you, love you how you are, not because of something or a certain quality.

    Source
  • Happiness

    Filter the People in your Life and make them and yourself happy!

    Source
  • Relationship

    In a relationship you have to dissolve your ego without any expectations to the other one. If you don’t want to dissolve your ego, why do you want a relationship?

    Source
  • Honesty

    We need to learn to say no instead of having a formal attitude that keeps us from being honest and expressing what we really want.

    Source
  • Religion

    Religion welcomes people with an option to only be partly religious. Take as much of it as you want: 20%, 40% or 60%. Hardly anybody will go with 100% but religion does not care, it wants to have you in any way. It is like sugar-coated poison, a drug that promises you a lot and you, carefully, take a bit and don’t notice how you are drawn into it even more.
