Spiritual growth is the process of getting rid of wrong concepts, thoughts and beliefs about who we are and about and the world in which we live. Through this process we increase our awareness of our true inner being, the true spirit that we are. It is a process of looking inside us, shedding our illusions and uncovering our true essence, which is always present, but hidden beyond the ego-personality. <br />
~ Remez Sasson<br />
<br />
Everyone wants peace of mind but very few have it. The only way to get peace of mind is to start slowly and slowly controlling your 5 senses and meditate and unite with your inner self.</font></p>

Where am I?  Who am I?  How did I come to be here?  What is this thing called the world?  How did I come into the world?  Why was I not consulted? And If I am compelled to take part in it, where is the Director?  I want to see him.  ~ Soren Kierkegaard</font></p>

<br />
OM BHUR BHUVAH SVAHA<br />
TAT SAVITUR VARENYAM<br />
BHARGO DEVASYA DHEEMAHI<br />
DHIYO YO NAH PRACHODAYAT<br />
<br />
We meditate upon the<br />
glorious splendor of<br />
the Vivifier Divine.<br />
May He Himself illumine our minds!<br />
<br />
The Gayatri Mantra consists of fourteen words, each of which holds an important meaning...<br />
<br />
This prayer is carried out for four main reasons:<br />
<br />
to praise and glorify God;<br />
to thank God;<br />
to ask forgiveness from God;<br />
or to make a request from God.</p>

		<p>Mind Transformation<br />
<br />
    As a leaking vessel never can fill<br />
    Waters of Life so pure and still<br />
    So distracted mind fails to retain<br />
    Wisdoms nectar in its brain<br />
<br />
    To fill waters from wisdoms spring<br />
    Our minds we must to stillness bring<br />
    Then our crystal bowl of tranquil mind<br />
    With  Gnosis fills of supernal kind<br />
<br />
    But if the very thoughts of mind<br />
    Be as fleeting deer and hind<br />
    Darting wayward ways they find<br />
    Such men to wisdoms ways are blind<br />
<br />
    To ease disease of random mind<br />
     A remedy suitable we must find<br />
    A rhythmic breathing tension free<br />
    Absorption as its sovereign key<br />
<br />
    Steady poise the arrow your will<br />
    And shoot the fleeting mind to still<br />
    The deer of thoughts , hinds & harts<br />
    Felled by your concentrated darts<br />
<br />
    As one by one they die away<br />
    Mind opens up to new day<br />
    Streams run tranquil willows sway<br />
    Here tame and gentle deer do play<br />
<br />
    Tamed and tuned to natures flow<br />
    Mind melts into the opal glow<br />
    Which radiates from the Soul within<br />
    Where Wisdoms mystic fire is King !<br />
<br />
                                                            ~ Thank You</p>
