Inspiration From Paramahansaji to Put Into Practice

Though we may seem divided by race, creed, colour, class, and political prejudices, still, as children of the one God we are able in our souls to feel brotherhood and world unity….In our hearts we can all learn to be free from hate and selfishness. Let us pray for harmony among the nations, that they march hand in hand through the gate of a fair new civilization.

— Paramahansa Yogananda

An affirmation to practise: “I relax and cast aside all mental burdens, allowing God to express through me His perfect love, peace, and wisdom.”

A simple practice for overcoming fear: Fear comes from the heart. If ever you feel overcome by dread of some illness or accident, you should inhale and exhale deeply, slowly, and rhythmically several times, relaxing with each exhalation. This helps the circulation to become normal. If your heart is truly quiet you cannot feel fear at all.”
