Wise Words - Swami Jnaneshvara

Today I would like to share some very wise words with you by Swami Jnaneshvara, an ordained monk in the Himalayan tradition and the order of Shankaracharya, now living in the USA and an independent emissary of Swami Rama and the Himalayan Tradition. His website is the very best site on meditation and spiritual teachings that I have found on the web. It is well worth visiting, particularly if you are a seeker of the Truth about who you are in relation to Existence, to the Divine. His teachings are easily understandable with many visual diagrams explanations. He also has great info's on how to start meditating from scratch. If you would like to read more, go to www.swamij.com. I highly recommend his website.

WISDOM TO LIVE BY AND SHARE WITH OTHERS

Swami Jnaneshvara

There is only one highest reality and many teachers.
All humans and life arise from the same one source.
All countries, religions and institutions arise from that.
There are many books of wisdom from many ages.
Thinking there is only one way comes from ignorance.
Coercive conversion is violence against other peoples.
The goal of life is found within, not in institutions.
Wisdom, joy and freedom come from inner stillness.
Love all, as we are all waves of the one ocean.

Beautiful is it not? So true and yet we forget these wisdoms so often in our daily lives.
Write this up and past it somewhere where you can read it every day.

Namaste,
Leandra
