Awakening the Inner Strength

Human life is a turning point in the evolution of consciousness. One who loses this opportunity and does not attempt awakening his inner self, knowing his soul, is the biggest loser. He cannot attain peace - neither in this life, nor in the life beyond. Thus, if we are truly desirous of ascent, beatifying bliss and peace, we must begin to look inwards. Joy is not there in the outer world, not in any achievement or possession of power and enormous resources. It is the soul, which is the origin and ultimate goal of this intrinsic quest
Just think! Happiness is a virtue of consciousness, how could then the inanimate things of this world give us joy? it is after all the "individual self", which aspires for unalloyed joy and enjoys it. Then how could it be so dependent upon others for this natural spirit of the consciousness Force? How could the world, which is ever changing and perishable, be the source of fulfilling our eternal quest? On the contrary, the sensual pleasures, the worldly joys, which delude us all the time, mostly consume our strength and weaken the life force of our sense organs and our mind.
This fact should be remembered again and again that the quest, the feeling of blissfulness are there because of the soul and it is only the awakened force of the soul, the inner strength that can lead the evolution of the individual self to the highest realms of eternal beatitudeus bliss.

Who is Religious?
Love, compassion, generosity, kindness, devotion, zeal, honesty, truthfulness, unflinching faith in diving values, etc - are the natural virtues of the soul. Their presence in a person is the sigh of his/her spirituality. These alone are the source of spiritual means of inner strength. Your endeavors for cultivating these qualities in your character must continue with greater intensity till your personality is fully imbibed with them. One who achieves this, he/she alone is truly spiritual and religious; he/she alone is worthy of meeting God - being beatified by thy grace.
Devotion of God is not confined to a specific religious cult or rituals. It lies in the deepest core of the inner emotions. Those who chant God's name need not be religious; truly religious are those who follow the divine disciplines, adopt divine values in their conduct. Guiding the path to unification of the soul with God - inculcation of divinity in the human self, is the foundational purpose of religion. Blessed are those who grasp this noble truth of religion and devotion.
Those who have reached this state of devotion would deserve attaining the eternal light of ultimate knowledge. They can realize God in their pure hearts and experience the absolute bliss forever….
