33. Your heart's door

The Spiritual HeartThis week Sri Chinmoy offers a meditation exercise for increasing our good and divine qualities by allowing them to enter our spiritual heart – through “your heart's door” as Sri Chinmoy puts it.

32. You are only the heart

The Spiritual HeartWhat better way to escape the doubting, halting, vacillating mind than to feel that you do not have a mind! Hard to do? Yes, but not impossible if we can go beyond the mind and utilise the sweet, tranquil and vast spiritual heart. Do we become mindless morons – no more than robotic? Not at all!

31. Feel you are a child

Smile and CryYou tell me that you do not want to fall anymore.
You want to rise, only rise.
I tell you the secret of secrets:
This moment cry like a child,
Next moment smile like a child.
This is the way you can rise and rise at every moment.
