The mind is difficult to tame,
It wants to go where it will,
But unless we apply control to it,
It is never peaceful or still;
Discipline is certainly needed,
Prayer, meditation and yoga to the fore,
Doing a little each day,
Allows inner peace to soar.
“A man of meditation is happy, not for an hour or a day, but quite round the circle of all his years.” ISSAC TAYLOR.
Dearest lovely God,
I love You in so many ways,
Please let me show this more and more,
In each of my days;
I love You in the morning,
I love You late at night,
I love You for everything,
And for my spirit so bright.
“Learning to meditate, is the greatest gift you can give yourself in this life.” SOGYAL RIMPOCHE.
Dearest lovely God,
I was often in the dark,
Going through life,
Without a spiritual spark;
I felt life was a burden,
Going nowhere,
Until I asked for Your help,
And for Your tender loving care.
"Said the monk; "All these mountains and rivers and the earth and the stars - where do they come from ?" Said the master; "Where does your question come from ?" ANTHONY de MELLO.
Daily I exercise my body,
Daily I exercise my soul,
I do lots of walking and things,
And occasionally I plays music and sings;
I find prayer and meditation rewarding,
They help my fitness and spirituality to soar,
As I thank God daily for my body and soul,
God whom I now love and adore.
"Happiness is not a goal, it's a by-product." ELEANOR ROOSEVELT.
