Inspiration and Counsel from Sri Sri Paramahansa Yogananda

This month's inspiration from Paramahansa Yogananda is on the topic of inner peace. We recommend that you take a few moments to reflect on these words of spiritual guidance in the morning before you start the day and again in the evening before you retire.

Focus your attention within. You will feel a new power, a new strength, a new peace − in body, mind, and spirit.

Everyone needs to let go of his worries and enter into absolute silence every morning and night. At such times, try to persist for one minute at a time without thinking about your problems. Concentrate instead on the peace within. Then try to concentrate for several minutes at a time on this inner peace. Next, think of some happy incident; dwell on it, and visualize it; mentally relive the pleasant experience over and over again until you have discarded your worries entirely.

God is present on the throne of peace within you. Find Him there first, and you will find Him in all that is good and meaningful in life: in true friends, in the beauty of nature, in good books, deep thoughts, and noble aspirations. Finding God within you, you will know that whatever in life gives you enduring peace is declaring to you the eternal presence of God, without as well as within. When you know God as peace within, you will realize Him as peace existing in the universal harmony of all things without.

Our beloved Gurudeva Sri Sri Paramahansa Yogananda first brought this celestial blessing to the attention of the world through his Autobiography of a Yogi, in which he said, "This auspicious event did not happen to Lahiri Mahasaya alone; it was a fortunate moment for all the human race. The lost, or long-vanished, highest art of yoga was being brought to light.
