"Impulses"----------Contemplation--------144

"Impulses"

1) "When "SHE" look at us then we become highlighted and then we come to know about so many merits and demerits as well"

2)  "Our present life is the consideration of our previous life, when and until we surrender our self into "Her" lotus feet, our "Prarabdha"(the out come of our previous doings) works as sculptor."

3)  "If you go higher then you will not supposed to do anything to get the light,"

4)  "When we become fully Absorbed in to meditation, become one with 'The Source' then a layer of Energy covers our external body, which is capable to receive and relay Pure Energy and enhances our Energy-field."

5)  "Usually Trouts(white water fish) climbs the mountains to reach the source of water by holding the current, the same happens with our attention, We too have to go up by holding the flow(Adi Shakti) to reach 'Him".

6)   ‎"Purity is the actual innocence, this is the real reflector."

7)  "When and until 'Sidhartha' became Buddha, He kept on running here and there to find God, He honestly fulfilled his duty of seeking 'Him' and when he got tired and left efforts then God appeared before him, But God had seen his true efforts.

8)  "When we sit into the Lap of mountain, it feels sitting into the lap of Father."

9) "Human cannot generate opportunity, it use to be given by God, We can plan only with what we have been given."

10) "A true Sadhak is just like a mountain, it may be broken due to Earth Quakes but cant be topple down."
