Principles for the Body To Make Early Morning Meditation Successful (cont.)
• Freshen the self before morning meditation, with a shower or a hot drink. Avoid
speaking before the meditation.
• Sit with an upright posture, away from the walls or comfortable chairs. If the
body is ill, awaken but sit comfortably, and do not force the self.
• Have a good circulation of fresh air.
• Subtle lighting creates an atmosphere of meditation. If it is too dark it will
lead to sleepiness; if it is too light there will be eye-strain.
• Burn incense sticks ("agarbattis"), only if it doesn't irritate your and others'
eyes and throats.

Message for the day 05-07-2013
----------------------------------------------------------
Our words are effective only when we combine them with pure thoughts and inspirational
actions.
Projection: As soon as we find someone's mistake it is natural for us to
give correction through our words. We tend to explain to others using a lot of words.
Yet we find that inspite of saying the right thing we are not being listened to
and our words are just wasted away. We don't understand at such times where the
problem lies.
Solution: To enable our corrections to others to be effective, we have to
combine our thoughts, words and actions. There need to be good wishes in our thoughts
which also brings sweetness in our words. We also need to take care that we are
putting into action all that we are talking. When we do this we will find that our
words are really effective.
