WASTE NOT TIME

Swami Sivananda

Time is life. Utilise time profitably in spiritual pursuits. Today is your own. Tomorrow perchance may never come. You have wasted much of your life. A little time is left. Make the best use of it. You too can realise God and be ever happy. O man! O ignorant man! O arrogant, impertinent man! you have wasted your life-time. Now at least spend your life of retirement usefully in Japa, Kirtan, meditation and selfless service. Do not waste even half a second. Plunge yourself in Japa, Kirtan and service of saints and the poor. Meditate.


When you are conscious of an object, you are unconscious of the subject, which is yourself. You forget yourself when you are absorbed in an object, and if you want to be conscious of yourself, you must forget about the object. If you are thinking of that, this cannot be known. So if you want to know, if you want to see this all-pervading consciousness, you must withdraw your mind from object consciousness.
