The more you meditate\, the more you will want to meditate\, but the less you meditate\, the less you will find meditation attractive. Never quit. Do less meditation for now\, but remain regular. If you have already quit\, begin again today. \nDo not expect any specific inner flower (experience) in meditation. Expectations are bound to disappoint. Instead\, meditate in the spirit of karma yoga without desiring any specific result: “Whatever comes of itself\, let it come.” Even if nothing comes\, this is no problem. Meditation invariably brings good things that are outside our conscious awareness. So just happily accept whatever comes. \nThe purpose of affirmations is to send positive thoughts into the subconscious mind\, changing its automatic habit patterns. The best times to affirm such thoughts are when the subconscious mind is open and receptive. In deep meditation\, affirmations can be the most effective of all. \nThis session is broadcast live on Zoom and Facebook.

It cannot be achieved by mere wishful thinking. If you throw yourself off a mountaintop with the affirmation\, ‘God will protect me\,’ see if He does! He expects you to use the common sense He has given you. \nHe will surely take care of you if you always do your best\, act sensibly\, and leave the results in His hands. Faith\, however\, must be watered by inner experience\, like a plant. The more you actually experience the care He takes of you\, the more you will come to rely on Him—not fanatically\, but naturally\, in the divine way. \nThe degree of faith\, and of the flow of divine grace in your life\, is determined by your depth of Self-realization. \nSchedule: \n9:00 – 10:00 am: Chanting & silent meditation zoom link\n10:00 – 11:00 am: Inspirational Satsang zoom link \nIf you can’t join in person\, join online: us02web.zoom.us/j/82858986897 \nAlso Live on YouTube: youtube.com/@AnandaDelhi/streams \nMore About Nayaswami Dhyana\n \nNayaswami Dhyana\, is co- spiritual director of Ananda Sangha.

Chika & Tyagi Shivendra (In-Person & Online)\nSunday\, 19 July\, 10:00 – 11:00 am\nBoth self-effort and receptivity to divine grace are important in the spiritual life.
