Daily Reflections | Maui Yoga Awareness

Miseries
Afflictions are the boons from God. There are many secrets in them and many inner experiences can be had by undergoing sufferings. It is good to be put to worries. The home is the training centre for submission and endurance, etc. It is the greatest form of penance and sacrifice.

Wisdom

Wisdom consists in forestalling events. To learn before the event is the way of the wise man. To prevent the event altogether is the wisdom of the sage. Some of us know the consequences of our actions only after we have acted. Some even know while they are doing it, the result of such action. The wise man knows beforehand, and avoids. That is also discipline.
