Today's Quotes: “We feel harassed physically, confused mentally, and weary for peace. This is how to relieve such a situation:The program of Yoga, Self-Analysis and meditation—a shifting of the focus of attention from the object to the subject, from the gross to the subtle,from the outer to the inner, from matter to Spirit, from multiplicity to Oneness. Go daily into deep meditation. Dive deep beneath the waves of the mindinto the ocean of Beingwhere Oneness, Peace, and prefect Harmony prevails. Gradually learn to abide there.” –Srimati Margaret Coble, ‘Self Abidance’“The simple truth here is that your conscious attention, once focused on the inner feeling of yourself, will destroy whatever is false in that feeling.  Since emotion or unhappiness is the falsehood in you (because it turns to pain) it is gradually dissolved or destroyed.  What is left behind is the true—your joyous, natural, vibrant self, your happy body. This can never be annihilated because it alone is real in you.” – from Barry Long’s book ‘Only Fear Dies’“Silence is the altar of Spirit.” -YoganandaToday's Practice:Abide in that place inside that is still, unmoving, effortlessly quiet, and Loving. Stay aware as that which isn't moving or talking when the body is moving and talking.  Keep returning to the hub, to the Center.  Breathe your way into the Center. Use a mala to help keep your attention in the Center instead of only in the world.  Do what it takes until your attention and the Center are recognized as One. I love you, Niknikki@curlynikki.comSupport the show (https://www.patreon.com/goodmornings)
