Develop a calm unruffled serenity of mind. Welcome pain and grief for they toughen the moral fibre. They reveal hidden sources of courage and hardihood. They appear to affect your career; but the real ‘You’ is unaffected. The real ‘You’ is the ‘I’ that works, dreams and sleeps.(SSS Vol.8, p. 34) Have no thorn of hate in your mind, develop love towards all. Desire is a storm, greed is a whirlpool, pride is a precipice, attachment is an avalanche, egoism is a volcano. Keep these things away so that when you recite the name of God or do Meditation, they do not disturb the equanimity. Let love be enthroned in your heart. Then, there will be sunshine and cool breeze and gurgling waters of contentment feeding the roots of faith. (MBI, p. 27) If you develop love you do not need to develop anything else.(EL, p. 237) To earn peace and to be unshakably established in it, man must develop Abhyasa (steady practice) and Vairagyam (full detachment), From birth to death, man is the slave of habits and practices. One must examine these and rely more and more on those that lead him towardssubjective joy rather than objective pleasure. Subjective joy can be acquired by harmony in the home, mutual cooperation among the members of the family and communit, acts of service to others and concern for the welfare and prosperity of the society in which one is living.(SSS Vol.13, pp. 55-56)
