We can see that mind is like the shadow of the Self. When you turn your back to the light of AtmaJnanam, you see the shadow created by the mind. When you turn towards the light of wisdom, this shadow disappears and the Self alone shines.

Mind has the tendency to attach to something. If it gets attached to the world, that bondage results in misery. If it gets attached to the Lord, that bondage actually liberates you from all other bondages and takes you to bliss.

Dear Devotee,

Mind is a powerful tool and a precious gift to the one who knows how to use it well. But the one who ignores it or misuses it, has to pay heavily with his life.

Wisdom is complete only with the knowledge of how to use your mind positively and creatively.

Don’t you think our education system must include this knowledge?

HariOm!
