- Realise
Wholeness in Yoga implies the integration of one's own personality, harmonious relationship with others and cosmic consciousness.
These are already there - yet one has to discover them, to be aware of them.
- Give
Often we say, "I would love to give up this habit, but it is so difficult."
If it is possible then to look within, we shall see that in actual fact, "I love the habit and do not want to give it up."
- Love
Without a single word being spoken, it is possible to radiate this spirit of true love and understanding the spirit that stands "under" every other person, looking up to the God 1n the "other person", bringing out the love rather than the spirit of aggression or domination in the other person.
- Realise
There is a natural spirit in each one of us which, when freed of all kinds of pollution, will reveal itself as the true spirit of religion.
Life, God, religion and humanity become indistinguishable at that point.
- Give
Gurudev would never use words like "pay", "salary", or "wages".
He looked upon His servants as manifestations of God.
This was His attitude throughout His life.
Whatever He gave was always a humble offering unto God.
