I know my body is a Temple,
In which lives the soul divine,
It’s up to me daily,
To keep it strong and fine;
I must do daily spiritual exercises,
Aim to live humbly all the time,
Knowing that God lives within me,
Is wonderful, blissful and sublime.
“God inhabits every soul.” St. JOHN of the CROSS.
Dear God, may I not think of myself,
As often as I do.
May I think only of others,
And of course of lovely You;
For the more I think of myself,
The more I put You to one side,
Please may I think only of You,
And flow serenely with Your tide.
"The outgoing person finds nothing but trouble." SWAMI PARAMANANDA.
Dearest lovely God,
May I control my ego and pride,
All so that I can help others,
Through life glide;
May I be ever-helpful,
Always aiming to help another,
Realising You are supreme,
And that everyone is my brother.
“Always sit and stand erect. Be master of yourself with your mind on the infinite power within and around you.” YOGANANDA.
I used to be involved with football,
I often managed a team,
But I had no inner peace,
I never did peacefully dream;
I thought to win a league or cup,
Would bring me joy,
But only by being connected to God,
That I become a happy boy.
"God is at home, it is we who have gone out for a walk." ECKHART TOLLE.
