Swami Sivananda's words of wisdom - Concentration and Meditation (3)

A man whose mind is filled with passion and all sorts of fantastic desires can hardly concentrate on any object even for a second. Celibacy, Pranayama, reduction of wants and activities, renunciation of sensual objects, solitude, silence, discipline of the senses, annihilation of lust, greed, anger, non-mixing with undesirable persons, giving up of newspaper-reading and visiting cinemas, all increase the power of concentration.

当一个人的心中充满了激情和各种梦幻般的欲望,他将是难以集中于任何事物,甚至是一秒钟。独身(限制性活动),调息,减少欲望和活动,放弃感官的对象,独处,沉默,纪律所有的感官,毁灭欲望,贪婪,愤怒,不与不良的人混合在一起,放弃阅读报纸和到访电影院,这些所有都会增强集中力。

About Yoga

Know thyself. Everything is impermanent and selfless. There is no 'I'. There is no 'I am selfless'/'I am not selfless'. There is no 'I am hurt'/'I need to be healed from hurt'. Non-blind believing, non-blind following, non-blind practicing and non-blind propagating, but be open-minded to inquire the truth of everything. Be free. Be peaceful. Be happy.
