Pearls of Wisdom

07-December

 

At one of the annual retreats in the Thrissur Ramakrishna Math, a devotee said to Swami Iswarananda – ‘Swamiji, the world is sinking to the bottom-most level degradation. What are we to do?’ Maharaj answered with a glow on his face – ‘Did you say bottom-most? Good – the next step is upward!’ Always remember every crisis has a way out. So when you find yourself in a difficult situation do not sit and cry. There is always a way out. Find it.

May we follow the spiritual path shown by Sri Ramakrishna, Sri Sarada Devi and Swami Vivekananda to reach God, the goal of our lives, and by His power help others also in their struggle to reach Him.

🔥 how can We Rewrite these Wisdom Quotes to prepare a Course Content for Teachers and Students to inspire them 

a) To adapt a daily plan for Self-reflection and self-development practices??

b) To appreciate a healthy worldview of Reality 

c) Awaken and understand the importance of Viveka-buddhi 

f) And Kartavya-palan ie Karma Yoga 

GOI has asked all govt servants to be trained to be Karma Yogi and envision G20 nations Global Vision of One World. One Family. One Future. 

It is our Challenge to transform these Wisdom Quotes in to a structure so that we may offer it as a Course Content by which our Teacher-Devotees can learn to BE & MAKE MENTORS of SOCIETY....

Modern schooling needs this Wisdom in modern angrezi ie Secular!! terms, without reference to God etc.!!

We neeed to Evolve and plan how to prepare a Course Content on say Karma Yoga for Teachers and Students based on the wisdom of these Quotes! For mainstream systems it must be made Secular!!😘

Here's an example:--

Wisdom of Karma Yoga...

💥The same medicine will give different results, according to the type of ingredients taken with it.

Similarly, work can lead to Highest Perfection or attachment to worldly goals depending upon our Attitudes. 

Normally all the work we do leads to bondage and desire for results; yet if we can learn to do the same work in a spirit of service... not negligently but with full concentration in a detached way, in a spirit of duty and seva-bhava, with dedication to God, that same work will take you towards devotion and Freedom.

Whereas Confusion will arise and bondage will result if you keep your eye on name, fame, or some other self- centered worldly objective.

The ideal of Karma Yoga, of Kartavya-palan is to consider work itself as being equivalent to practising austerities, worshipping God with rituals, going on pilgrimages, and fasting. 

What is the use of self-study and  meditation if we only be bored and fall asleep. Is that any good?

 Is it not better to devote whole life performing all our duties and work in a spirit of service for good of all .... to God if we believe in God? 

On the other hand, to feel work as drudgery, something which has to be unnecessarily done, to feel overworked, is also not good.

Work should be done as our duty, smoothly, through love not hatred.

Both our love and hatred affect only our Mind and do leave bad samskar!

Berrer than hard and fast rules for our teams at work, is to let love and affection be our watchword; they will give their hearts and lives in return.

As a leader try to learn through reflection, like loving mothers, that if the team do any wrong, it is not their fault; all the fault is mine!

If we want things to go well, always try to reform yourself; always keep watch on your own character and behaviour. 

We must always be conscious that our daily intentions-actions itself can take us towards Highest ... so we must be conscious that if we see any defect in 'others' it is our own defect (as Self, we're all ONE, there's no other)!  

The wise say, if you want to become great, see others as great.

Education must learn to give the essential message of all Scriptures in a nutshell ... strive to be more and more selfless thru striving to Fulfil our worldly duties in a spirit of service and worship... this is the hghest religion... Wisdom of KY

(TEACHINGS OF SWAMI PREMANANDA) 

The self-same medicine will give different results, according to the type of ingredients taken with it. Thus, work is in one sense a bondage; yet if it can be done in a detached way, in a spirit of dedication to God, that same work will give you devotion and liberation. Confusion will arise and bondage result if you keep your eye on name, fame, or some other worldly objective.

Tell X. to consider his work as being equivalent to practising austerities, worshipping God with singing, going on pilgrimages, and fasting. I see that when he tries to sit in meditation he only falls asleep. Is that any good? Is it not better to devote his whole life performing deeds as service to God? On the other hand, to feel one has to do too much, to overwork, is also not good.

Work should be done smoothly, through love. Hard and fast rules are not good. Let affection be your watchword; they will give their hearts and lives in return.

I have learned through reflection that if the boys of the monastery do any wrong, it is not their fault; all the fault is mine. 

If you want things to go well try to reform yourself; always keep watch on your own character and behaviour. Sri Ramakrishna taught us that if we see any defect in others it is our own defect.  If you want to become great, see others as great.
