Let go of ego!

You sometime feel you’re going through some identity crises... You feel you are not being acknowledged by others as you’d like to be. These blockages seem out of reach. Observe. You hold yourself to ahaṅkār, the identity you project to the outer world. People’s not acknowledging you as you want seems like a death, a negation of your existence. Drop that! Be free. Never live on expecting others to give you substance. After all, you exist! Is anything else necessary?

Be responsible!

Maturity is to accept the responsibility to be oneself, whatever may come. It is risking everything to be fully oneself. There is no age to unfold it in you. Going beyond thoughts and feelings to become pure being is what maturity is. This maturity gives you intelligence, a very sharp intelligence that becomes an asset for the community in which you live. To use one's experience and wisdom in a humanitarian way; to harness it to become a living example of one's master's message, is the greatest service one can perform for his guru.

Be centered

How can you change the world? To make the whole world blissful and happy, you don't have to do anything. Just change your center. When the inner awakening happens, the higher emotions happen. It all finally boils down to your own experience of what is happening. If you want to save the world, all you need to do is save yourself! Everything is actually happening in this world: spiritual sessions where enlightenment is being shared and at the same time terrorist training camps where violence is being shared. According to what you tune into, the world that you attract and see will also appear to be. You will attract the same type of people and situations in your life.

Understand!

Existence has many ways to teach us through experience. It would make you more insecure, more uncertain, because that's how life is, that's how existence is. When there is more insecurity, more danger, the only way to respond to it is with awareness. Just stand in your sincerity and authenticity. Money is not the aim of the cosmic constitution; your soul's journey is the aim! The learning that stands behind the experience is the goal. Ultimately, whatever you have now will leave you when death comes. Trust life to take care of you! Envision the problem under a bigger scope, a cosmic scope, which will give you great freedom and insight into the inner mysteries of life!

Kick this laziness out!

It is time to fight your indulgence. One should better face the problem instead of running away to hide in one's room, to do useless things which will not help you to grow. Now, only intensity will help to fight your inertia. After all, problems are not eternal. When we are depressed, we feel we will be depressed forever. No! It is not possible. You are constantly changing, people are constantly changing, and problems are also constantly changing. Nothing is fixed in Existence. What is required is a little patience to wait for things to move, and a little courage to face situations without making big problems out of them. And lo, in no time, the whole thing is forgotten!

Śani (Saturn god)

Śani (Saturn god) as represented in Tiruvannamalai Ashram(India). Around Saturn stand the other 8 Navagraha deities (deities associated with the nine planets), along with their Navagraha trees (trees associated with the nine planets), to bless all with abundance. The circle of deities is placed around the main deities of the temple, Sri Anandeshwara and Anandeshwari; located near a powerful energy field of 1008 Śiva lingas radiating Śiva's cosmic energy in an extremely auspicious atmosphere.
