Discard any negative thoughts which plague your mind, replacing them with thoughts of devotion and worship. Transform your mind into a divine temple by filling it with smruti and mahima – Pappa
Through the grace of Bapa (Yogiji Maharaj), our physical self has attained the state where it is free from desires (nishkam). This is indicated by the fact that we serve the Lord with our physical body, according to His commands and only to please Him – for no other reason. If we now proceed to purify our mind, freeing it from all desires (nishkam man) – then we would become ‘living temples’ – jangam mandir in our own right. By nature, the mind is prone to conceive all sorts of negative thoughts – we should discard such thoughts, and begin to meditate and ponder on memories of the divine swaroop -this practice is known as murti ni smruti. We should awaken a desire, make a conscious effort to discard such thoughts from our mind at any cost. Utilise any method to destroy such thoughts – tell yourself that no matter how strong your vices and faults, the Gunatit Swaroop who has selected you, will use his sankalpa and prayers to purify your mind, free you from negative thoughts and will instil positive, moral and noble thougths. Remain happy and carefree in this knowledge. Remain submerged in the Lord and ponder only on thoughts of devotion and worship. At first, this will be a conscious effort which will gradually become a natural habit – a way of life. The mind will become accustomed to conceiving only positive thoughts, thoughts of mahatmya and will then become unable to entertain any form of negative thoughts. Thus the mind will become a divine temple.
