Book: Internal engineering. The path to joy. Practical guide from yoga

Thoughts are also reverberation. if you create a powerful thought and release it into the world, it will always manifest itself. For this to happen, it is important not to confuse your thinking or weaken it by creating negative and arrogant thought patterns.

Morality itself is needed because it helps to ensure public order; however, it leads to inner emptiness. No one can comply with the moral standards that are established by most religions, and therefore most of humanity lives in a state of constant guilt, shame and fear. This is a tragically mutilated existence. Humanity also leads to social order, but it does not require any external compulsion.

When you identify with your limited ideas about morality, you become completely obsessed. Your rational thinking revolves around this identification, and you will never see the world as it is. If you want an element of spirituality to enter your life, the first thing to do is to drop rigid ideas about virtue and vices in order to learn to see life as it is.

Once you establish contact with your awareness, you no longer have to try to achieve something. You don't even have to wish or dream, because the best thing that can ever happen to you is bound to happen.

When you carefully connect with your awareness, you gain access to the most subtle dimension of the physical, called akash.

You can raise your awareness to different levels. As it rises, new dimensions of being open up in your experience. Worlds that you did not imagine in your wildest dreams become a living reality for you.

Love is simply a willingness to respond freely and openly.

The past exists within each of us only as a memory.

If the ability to respond intelligently, competently and sensitively is replaced by compulsiveness or passivity, we are enslaved by the situation. This means that the nature of our life experience is determined by circumstances, and not by ourselves.

Our concepts of good and evil are humane and socially conditioned. They are very good as norms of social life. But the existence of the world does not take them into account. The world is not subject to judgment. He treats all of us the same.

Creating your own destiny does not mean controlling every situation in the world. Creating your destiny is a constant pursuit of your well-being and your original nature, regardless of the content of life around you.

In that moment, everything will change. You are no longer chasing joy: your whole life becomes an expression of joy.

If you thus bifurcated all that exists within yourself, it is no longer possible to achieve a state of lasting well-being and freedom. You were told to love your enemy.

Whenever difficulties arise in our life, we take it into our own hands. Whenever misfortunes happen to other people, we explain it in one word: fate.
