Pujya Sri Swamiji, Bhakti Mala, Jan 2010

If one's mind is clean and upright, everything outside will also appear
to be clean and upright.  If one's mind is polluted and agitated, the
entire outside world would appear to him as disgusting and frustrating.

Pujya Sri Swamiji, Bhakti Mala, Jan 2010

A very common tendency in man is to find faults with others and the
outside environment he relates to.  Such a tendency of finding fault is
of no avail.  In fact, it disturbs the peace of mind and prevents a
person from being in harmony with himself."

Pujya Sri Swamiji, Bhakti Mala, Jan 2010

"In the spiritual path, a devotee needs to cultivate the habit of
keeping his mind clean.  Only then divine life is possible.  Let us stop
finding fault in others, and instead, let us try to correct and improve
ourselves."
