Attaining Peace of Mind : 3.

-



Unfortunately, that is not so. The judge is involved in the very circumstance of judging. A judgment is an organic action. It is not an individual's predilection, or thinking as one would like. The judiciary is an organism which includes the judge, the lawyers and the people who are connected with the case. They are not isolated units scattered out in a disabled manner, but they form a complete whole. If the judge knows that the whole atmosphere of judiciary functioning is a complete whole, the judgment also is a complete whole without any kind of partisanship.



This is a psychology that is applicable to every kind of experience in your life, every duty that you perform, every work with which you are acquainted. It is not possible to have peace unless you know the source of peace. The source of peace is the balance that has to be struck in your own mind. The balance is disturbed on account of the mind working as the medium of the sense organs, which move towards objects outside. The agitation of the mind is caused by the necessity to think in terms of external objects – distance itself. That which you call peace or harmony of existence is the situation that you establish between yourself and that to which you belong – namely, the universal whole. It begins with lesser wholes and then enlarges itself into larger wholes until it covers the whole universe. Until the whole creation is in peace, you cannot be in peace, because it is not possible for a limb to be healthy when the organism is suffering.



If completeness is the nature of the entire creative pattern, the peace spoken of in terms of this pattern of creativity is integral to itself. The universe does not require anything to happen outside it in order that it may be in peace. Remember what I told you: every part of the cosmic organism is also an organism by itself – including yourself. The universe does not require anything to happen outside it in order that it may be in peace. If that is the truth, then it applies to you also. There is no need for anything to take place outside in order that you may be in peace, because the law of the universe applies to every individual. The law of the universe is such that it needs nothing external to it. Then how do you expect anything to take place outside yourself, for the sake of your peace of mind? It is, therefore, actually a meditational activity taking place when you are aspiring for peace of mind.

Opinion 18/11/2015 104.  Sub : Beware  of  Spiritual  Gods ( Human ) :  Ref :  Bharatham is  full  of  pseudo  religious  guru-s,  starting  with  priests  of  Temple, Church  and  Mosque  All Members,  Respected family members of this great holy Nation. Part-4. A. 1. No  living  Master  who  breathes  and  eats,  and  recognizes  a  world  to  function  in,  can  ever  claim  that  he  is  God. 2. Members  and my  brothers  and  sisters,  don't  be  deceived. 3. Having  seen  a  God  you  will  not  live  to  declare  it;  4. a  salt-doll  went  into  the  sea  to  measure  its  depth  and  it  could  not  come  back  to  declare  its  discovery! 5. The  individual  having  had  the  God-experience  will  not  come  to  declare  that  the  Almighty  and  the  All-pervading  Truth  is  the  limited,  mortal,  finite  structure  of  the  reacher. 6.

Chinmaya Mission: Sevika Sarika Pherwani’s Bala vihar performed the Paduka Puja at Dosti Erica, wadala.  We received an enthusiastic response from children who attended it with their Parents/grand parents.   Sevika Dimple Parekh assisted in conducting this and it was well received by the Parents ================================================================ 1.#Opinion : Thursday, 14 Dec 05:30. 3363. // Article Philosophy 1.#On Reason and Higher Life - 1.Swami Krishnananda./// ================================================================ First of all, it has to be remembered that reason is not everything, and it is futile to work up an apotheosis of reason. This itself is contrary to reason, and it is a prejudiced faith of the human mind which makes it imagine that reason is all. You ask, 'On what is faith based?', but I ask, 'On what is reason based?' 'Who told you that reason itself is reasonable?' Don't you think that this itself is a faith that you h

In reality, personality issomething more than this. It includes a man’s character, intelligence, noble qualities,moral conduct, intellectual attainments, certain striking faculties, special traits orcharacteristics, sweet powerful voice, etc. All these things put together constitute thepersonality of Mr. So and so. The sum total of all these things makes up the personalityof a man. Mere physical characteristics cannot make up the personality. What you call an umbrella is really
