Practical exercise

A practical exercise is suggested to you. Like your
body requires a bath everyday to clean your body and
refresh it, like you need to take food to energize
your body, like you need to sweep your house everyday,
spend an hour everyday, preferably in the mornings, on
spirituality. During this period devolop chanting or
meditate or indulging in spiritual music. Spend this
time everyday towards spirituality. Live this hour
for yourself, for your self-development. March
towards spirituality.

This exercise will purify your mind. It will
strengthen your intellect. It will make you wiser.
It will make you think cool. It will get rid of anger
from you.

Similarly, do an exercise at the end of the day on
retrospection. Reflect on what happened during the
day. Recount the incidents of the day. Review you
reactions to those incidents. Judge for yourself if
what you had done was right or not. Look for the
truth in yourself. Look for bliss. Do not look for
happiness in the outside world.

There were two passengers in a train—one a wealthy
businessman and the other, a thief. The businessman
was carrying a bundle of notes, and the thief knew it.
Both were awake for quite a long time. After some
time, the businessman went to the toilet and returned.
Later, the thief went to the toilet as a relief from
his anxiety. When he came back, he saw the
businessman sleeping, and sleeping well.

Now the thief started searching for the bundle of
notes. He had noticed that the businessman had not
carried the notes to the toilet.
He searched everywhere, but could not find the money.
The next morning, after the businessman got up and
before he was about to alight from the train, the
thief confessed to the businessman about his
intentions of stealing and requested the businessman
to tell him where he had kept the money. The
businessman showed the money from under the pillow of
the thief.

The thief was searching for the money everywhere,
except his own belongings. This is what we human
beings do. We search for happiness, bliss and God,
everywhere in the outside world. But everything is in
us.
