“I pray that your love and faith in the Lord may grow stronger and stronger every day and also that you may always be in good health…You have sacrificed yourselves to serve the Lord through others. The only thing you want in return is knowledge and devotion. Why should you worry? The Lord is looking after you. He is always with you”
(p.142,Letters for Spiritual Seekers, in a letter dated 6-5-1918)
“The Lord is always present in the heart; we must keep our attention on Him. God is the Soul of our souls, the Life of our lives; it is through His grace that we are alive and functioning in this world. Therefore He is truly the first object of our love. Without knowing this, we undergo endless suffering. When we realize this fact, all of our troubles cease to exist. May the Master always keep this awareness awake in your heart. Then your life will be blessed.”
(p.147, Spiritual Treasures, Swami Turiyananda’s letter dated 6th May1916)
“Be very meditative, my dearest. Do not lose your time (and) energy. Live well; prove your life well. Behave yourself most spiritually. Life is short. Now or never. Try to make best use of me – your dear friend… Don’t lose opportunity.”
(p.181, Swami Trigunatita: His life and works, Swami Trigunatita in a letter dated 6th May 1903 written to Ujjwala)
