My human eyes are enthralled, with the changeful panorama of life an the gay prodigality of nature the multicolored flowers and the silent sailing clouds.
Open in me the divine eye that beholds in all beauty only Thy sovereign beauty. With the gaze of truth may I perceive in the universe nothing but Thee.

Happines is our birthright
May we realize, that we cannot be happy until we seek stisfaction in spiritual progress, guarding our peace of mind from all influences that would destroy it. Let us understand that happiness comes not by aimlessly thinking about it but by striving to express it in all our moods and actions.
No matter what tasks we are performing, teach us to feel the divine undercurrent, the hidden river of bliss, ever flowing beneath the sands of our myriad thoughts and the rocky soil of our difficulties.
May we be secretly joyous in spite of all adverse circumstances, knowing that happiness is our birthright, our divine (buried treasure) PY

Death's Reply
I am the piot of ever evolving life, often mistakenly called Terrible Death. I am THY brother, uplifter. redeemer, friend, unloader of thy gross burden of body troubles. I come to fetch thee away from the valley of thy broken dreams to a wondrous highland of light, to which poison vapors of sorrow cannot climb. RIP
Divine Sculptor
Every beat of my heart be a new word in my endless love lyric to You. May every sound from my lips carry secret vibrations of Your voice. Let my every thought be bliss saturated with Your presence.
May every act of my will be impregnated with Your divine vitality. Ornament with Your grace my every concept, every expression, every ambition.
O Divine Sculptor, chisel You my life to Your design!

Innocent Pleasures
Universe Teach me to live with delight. May i enjoy my earthly duties and the counltess beauties of creation. Help me to train my senses to observe and appreciate Your wondrous world of Nature.
Let me savor with Your zest all innocent pleasures. Save me from negation and unwarranted kill-joy attitudes.

We are actors in Thy cosmic pictures
Thy kaleidoscopic sound-picture, the ever changing drama of turbulence and calm, is only a vast structure of illusion.
Our dreams of birth and death, of contrasts and paradoxes, of comedies and tragedies are nought but talking pictures, produced to instruct and entertain.
Lord of Phantasmagoria, through Thy cosmic vibratory current of Aum Thou art daily showing us, on the screen of our consciousness, a new chapter of scenes in the infinite serial of Thy shadow show.
Each of us plays parts of both joy and sorrow in Thy supertalkies. May we play them well. Give us respite now and then, that we retire among our thought audiences in a balcony of introspection, there to behold with serene detachment the re-enacting of our roles.
May we view the adverse episodes in our lives with the eye of wisdom, saying, Ah, that was a good film, full of life and worthwhile struggle. I learn much from it.

President of The Universe
Divine Creator, president of the Universe, Chief of Planets, Stars and Galaxies! Your democratic rule, giving the rights of free will and self evolution to Your citizen children, is bringing them nearer and nearer to Thine ideals.
Teach us to enrich our spiritual opportunities and sympathies by enlarging the circle of the earth, regardless of color, caste, class, sex, or creed.

Whispers from Eternity
I will conquer pride by humility, hate by love, excitement by calmeness, selfishness by generosity, evil by good, ignorance by knowledge, and restlessness by the peace of meditation on You.

How to Change Others
The behavior of others should not be allowed to rob us of our peace of mind. It is difficult for anyone to remain mentally calm and hold his tongue when he is irritated by others, but no human being can successfully go through life telling everyone who annoys him how to behave. Unsolicited counsel creates tremendous resentment. One should not try to impose his will or ideas upon those around him unless they have asked for such guidence.
Reform yourself and you will reform thousands. Be an example of what you want others to be. Pramahansa Yogananda

One With God, One With God's Power
In the form of the earth He has a positive and a negative side, the north and south poles. The stars are His eyes, the grass and trees are His hair, and the rivers are His bloodstream. The ocean's roar, the skylark's song. the cry of the newborn babe, and all other sounds of creation are His voice. This is the personal God. The heartthrob behind all hearts is His pulsing cosmic energy. He is walking in mankind's twenty six hundred million pairs of feet. He is working through all hands. It is the One Divine Consciousness that is manifesting through all brains. Because of God's law of attraction and repulsion, the cells of the human body are harmoniously held together in the same way that stars are kept in balance in their proper orbits. The omnipresent God is ever active, there is not a place anywhere without some form of life. With illimitable prodigality God incessantly projects protean forms, inexhaustible manifestaions of His cosmic energy.
Harmonizing Physical, Mental, and Spiritual Methods of Healing
Those who are suffering from some physical trouble feel that the pain will never end, while those who are not ailing think they are fine and never expect to be unwell. If you are in good health, be greatful.
The Human machine is most imperfect, and therefore unreliable. Yet see how it lasts for so many years. Have you seen any car run as long as the human body does? Nevertheless, this wonderul machine that God has created is anything but perfect.
We must know the characteristics of the human machine. Just as a car needs water, gas, and electricity, so does the body. Your gas and water supply come from the solids, liquids, and oxygen you take into your body. To utilize them,
the energy of life (prana) must be present. That is the electicity. Wihout this life-electricity you couldn't digest your food or assimilate oxygen. You can liken the body to an automobile battery: both require inner electicity to produce "electricity" or energy. A battery is better, because when it dies you can recharge it from an outside source. But when your physical body is dead, you cannot revitalize it.

The Divine Meaning Behind Human Relationships
God gave us human raltionships in various forms for one reason. We are to learn from one an other. Everyone is in a sense our guru, our teacher. Children teach us, they discipline us, we have to learn endless patience and how to reach out ourselves, outside our own selfishness and self interest, in order to help mold thier lives correctly. Is our responsibility to guide and train them and give them the best pssible start in life. And so must we learn to behave in this world. When there is complete understanding and communication between two souls, there is real friendship and real love. When people learn to keep friendship, respect, and regard in their relationships they will never abuse each other, or hurt themselves by such abuse.
