सदाचार का महत्व

समझने में भूल करना भ्रम है और भ्रम को जान लेना ज्ञान है। संसार में हमारे अनुभव हमारी समझ पर निर्भर है। क्योंकि हमारी समझ में त्रुटियाँ है। इसलिए संसार माया है, भ्रम है। सभी अबुभाव हमारे अपने दृष्टिकोण से होते है। अनुभवकर्ता(द्रष्टा) ही एकमात्र सत्य है।
अनुभवों के बीच अनुभवकर्ता और द्रष्टा को खोजो। प्रत्येक अनुभव हमारे भीतेर एक छाप छोड़ता है। जिससे हमारी बुद्धि द्धक जाती है। इसी क्षण जागो। अपने मस्तिष्क से सभी पुराने अनुभवों को निकाल दो। उस पवित्र आत्मा को देखो जो मैं हूँ, जो तुम हो।
अनुभव और अनुभवकर्ता का भेद
क्या तुम सचमुच यहाँ हो? क्या तुम सुन रहे हो? अब आँखें बंद कर के देखो। कौन सुन रहा है, प्रश्न कौन कर रहा है? कौन बैठा है और कौन क्या चाहता है। कौन उलझन में है? यही अनुभवकर्ता है। इन दो शब्दों में बारीक सा भेद है,जिसने समझ लिया उसने अनुभव कर लिया।

How far to heaven? Just open your eyes and look. You are in heaven. —Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, San Diego - 1994.

You are Divine. You are part of me. I am part of you. —Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, I Am in All These Forms.

You have been given the highest blessing, the most precious knowledge on this planet. You *are* the Divine Self; you are part of the Self. Walk with that confidence. It's not arrogance. It's, again, Love. —Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, I Am in All These Forms.

Your mind is trying to find an escape and doesn't want to rise to that level to which the master is trying to raise you, trying to pull you up. —Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, I Am in All These Forms.


Want, or desire, arises when you are not happy. Have you seen this? When you are very happy then there is contentment. "Contentment" means "no want". —Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, I Am in All These Forms."Want" is always hanging on to the "I." When the "I" itself is dissolving, "want" also dissolves, disappears. —Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, I Am in All These Forms.Behind everything is your ego: "I, I, I, I." But in seva there is no "I," because it has to be done for someone else. It is for the need of the time, or surrounding people, that you do it. —Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, Seva and the Art of Enthusiasm.So what if somebody recognizes you: "Oh, you are a wonderful person." So what? In that person's mind that thought came and went. It is also finished. That mind has gone. Maybe they keep an attraction for you for some days, some months, so what? That also goes it also goes. —Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, Seva and the Art of Enthusiasm. Much energy is wasted in trying to charm others. And in wanting to charm---I tell you, the opposite happens. —Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, Seva and the Art of Enthusiasm.
By self-study, by observing, by being hollow and empty, you become a channel---you become a part of the Divine. You are able to feel the presence of the Divinity. All the different angels and devas, all these different forms of our consciousness, start blossoming. —Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, The Eight Limbs of Yoga.Some feeling came into you, unpleasant feeling, and you said, "Should not come, it should not come!" Doing that, you are resisting it. When you resist, it persists. Just observe. See, "Oh!" Go deep into it. Dance; stand up on your feet and dance. Be intoxicated; move intoxicated. —Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, Fountain of Joy. Life is nothing to be very serious about. Life is a ball in your hands to play with. Don't hold on to the ball. —Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, Seva and the Art of Enthusiasm.
Meditation is THE comfort in Life. —Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, Lake Tahoe 1999.
