Ø One must have regular physical exercise every day. Our scriptures say: “A good physique is the first requisite of spirituality.” For spiritual advancement, one must first make the body strong: “Mens sana in corpore sano” – a Sound Mind in Sound Body”. (Swami Shivananda, Divine Life Society)
Ø One can escape from the clutches of misery only if one always thinks of the ultimate results that his acts may bring. Who can remove the misery of one who fails to learn even by repeated experience? (Swami Vrajananda)
Ø Whatever you do is karma. Not only what you do is karma, but also what you say or think is karma; even breathing is karma. If you say to yourself that you will murder somebody, that is almost as bad as if you have already murdered him. First thought, then action. What you think is important, for it is out of your thinking springs what you do later. So you have to watch every thought in your mind. Thinking makes you,. What you are. If you go on thinking bad thoughts, you will soon end up doing bad deeds also. Thinking and doing are not far apart. (Swami Lokeswarananda)
Ø Excessive routine activities stifle mental activity and creativity. (Silvano Arietti)
Ø The soul is neither young nor old. If only know how to draw energy from the soul, the body would also be rejuvenated. After intense meditation, there comes a rush of energy. (Swami Yatiswarananda)
