Title: | Mind control in spirituality | Authors: | Narayanswamy, Ramnath | Keywords: | Spirituality;Mind | Issue Date: | 11-May-2015 | Publisher: | The Printers (Mysore) Private Limited | Abstract: | Whether the mind is a friend or an enemy depends upon the sagacity of the spiritual aspirant. According to Sri Babuji, the mind is the cause of our bondage as well as our freedom: “A mind filled with worldly pleasures and desires is the cause of our bondage while a mind that is devoid of them is the cause of our freedom or emancipation.” According to Swami Yatiswarananda: “The trouble is that our mind is too outgoing, we are too selfish, too self-centered. So we should try to do some service to others in some form or the other. Look at a mother’s sacrifice! No one should be allowed to lead a self-centered life without making any sacrifices for others whatever form they make take.” “Life is a sacrifice and can find its fulfillment only in sacrifice. Out and out self-centered people have no place in spiritual life.” Read more at: https://www.deccanherald.com/content/476864/mind-control-spirituality.html | Description: | Deccan Herald, Bangalore, 11-05-2015 | URI: | https://repository.iimb.ac.in/handle/2074/13436 |
