Some devotional thoughts of a spiritualist


Dear brothers and sisters,

Here are some devotional thoughts of a spiritualist which I prefer to share with you.

1. “Love is the feminine part of you and intellect is the masculine part of you. When both are in harmony, you will become whole and complete and feel spiritual wellness. Both have to support each other. If you know how to think and not know how to feel and vice versa then you will be incomplete. This incompleteness will haunt you in spite of your achievements. You will be in misery whether you are in the world or in a monastery. Spiritual bliss comes only when you are whole.”

2. “Treat your body as a temple. Feel it with respect. Treat every moment with awareness, respect and accept your body as the greatest gift of God.”

3. “When you encounter a negative feeling, imagine you are diminishing its power. If this does not work then bring a happy feeling and superimpose it on the negative feeling and its impact will diminish.”

4. “Chant a mantra and feel the power of God’s blessings wiping away your negative feeling. Do this with faith and power of imagination.”

With brotherly regards,
S S Goenka

Are all these devotional thoughts from S. N. Goenka's Vipasana think tank? Just curious.

Dear Satyaprema,

Received your comments on my circular “Some devotional thoughts of spiritualist”.

Please note that the devotional thoughts given by me on 10th Jan 2008 have nothing to do with S N goenka’s Vipasana think tank.

For the information of the readers, my brother SN Goenka’s Vipasana thoughts are not supportive of God-centered philosophy. I do not agree with him.

With brotherly regards,
SS Goenka
