Supreme Atman shines. Until you have conquered mind, there can be no sure and permenant victory.
Be careful of your thoughts what ever you send out of your mind, comes back to you. If you hate others, hate will comeback to you. If you love others, love will come back to you.
Thoughts are like the waves of an ocean. They are countless. You may become desperate in the beginning of your attempt to conquer them. But never become desperate at any stage of practice. You will surely get inner spiritual strength. You are bound to succeed in the end. If you reduce your wants & desires, then the thoughts will decrease by themselves. Gradually all will be extirpated. All that we are is made up of our thoughts which is the cause of our round of births. So we should always try to purify our thoughts.
When we go and sit near Sage, we feel a unique calmless. It is because the Vibrations of peace and calmness emanate from the aura of the Sage.
Particularly around minds of highly developed thought power, we sense the manifest phenomenon of a powerful aura. To sit in his presence, though he hardly speaks a word, is to feel a thrilling sensation
