body

The mind-speech-body are effective. When will they not have effect on one? It is when one realizes one__ own [True] Self. It is when one attains the awareness, __ am indeed absolute Supreme Self (Parmatma).

Do not defile your body. It is a temple for the Holy spirit to dwell.

Your body is temple of the holy spirit.

As long as there is worldly life, one is going to attain physical body, and as long as there is a body, there will be worldly miseries and troubles.

To whom does Mataji (Mother Goddess) appear? It is to the one who becomes natural and spontaneous [sahaj swabhavi]. Mataji is said to have come if the mind, speech and the body become naturally blissful. It can be said that the natural spontaneous energies (adhya shakti) have arisen.

What is the justice of this world like? It is that the world will call him as God (Bhagwan), the one who has no thoughts about money (wealth), no thoughts of sensual pleasures and one who remains separate from his body at all times.

I don__ intend to fight with anyone; I have only one weapon of love. I want to win the world with love. What the world calls love, is really worldly love. [True] Love is when even if you curse me, I would not get __epressed_ and when you garland me with flowers, I would not become __levated_. In true love, there would not be any changes. Changes can occur in the intent and feelings (bhaav) of the body, but not in __ure love_.

When can it be said that one has entered into spirituality? Spirituality begins from the moment one gets the slight impression __ am somewhat different from this [the body?]_ And when dehadhyas, the belief of __ am the body, the relative self_, goes away; that is when spirituality is complete.

The worldly life remains [and is not ending and one is not going to moksha] due to the pollution of the mind [bad mind/bad thoughts] and not due to the pollution of the body.

Clashes should not occur whatsoever. Due to conflicts only have the energies diminished. Regardless of what may happen to the body, do not ever enter into conflicts. The body is not going to go away just because someone says so, or if someone casts a curse on it. The body is under the control of vyavasthit [scientific circumstantial evidences].

By the grace of the Lady, whose face mirrors my own, may I ever remember I am made in her image, blessed and beautiful.

It was your body....that danced at your first drum circle; it was your body that gave birth to your child; it was your body that got down and dirty in the back seat of your dad's station wagon; it was your body that shivered, sweated, clasped its hands, fell to its knees, wept, and laughed the first time you felt the presence of the goddess in your life.

...she is careful who she sleeps with, because only those willing totreat her witht he same reverence are worthy of her attention....you are the Goddess, and "all acts of love and pleasure" are your rituals

Once you can let go of illusion and draw upon a more universal source of motivation then you will re connect with your true purpose on Earth.

Consider the holiness of your hands. They are how you do your work on this earth; they are a microcosm of the hands of the Goddess, and can change the world as easily as hers can.

Soft on the neck of either dove love's hands let slip the reins: and while we look for light of love, love's twilight wanes...

THE MAXIMS OF MEDICINE Before you examine the body of a patient,Be patient to learn his story.For once you learn his story,You will also come to knowHis body.Before you diagnose any sickness,Make sure there is no sickness in the mind or heart.For the emotions in a man__ moon or sun,Can point to the sickness inAny one of his other parts.Before you treat a man with a condition,Know that not all cures can heal all people.For the chemistry that works on one patient,May not work for the next,Because even medicine has its ownConditions.Before asserting a prognosis on any patient,Always be objective and never subjective.For telling a man that he will win the treasure of life,But then later discovering that he will lose,Will harm him more than by telling himThat he may lose,But then he wins.THE MAXIMS OF MEDICINE by Suzy Kassem
