About this Blog

This Blog is a collection of excerpts from talks given by Sri Swami Vishwananda. Please note that this Blog does not focus on dates, background and the exact original way of how Swamiji delivered the speech. We edit the talks slightly, presenting them in a kind of “poetic” format. This means we choose certain paragraphs from a talk which reflect a particular theme.
Read them as pieces of Divine Wisdom, meditate upon the words and just feel how Swamiji is addressing you with His words.

Swami Vishwananda & Calming the Mind

Swami Vishwananda says: "Let the mind play its game. Let it be focused, and if you see that the mind is wandering around bring it back. Because if you are aware that the mind is flying, that means that you can stop him from flying. If you are aware that your mind is not calm, that means that you can calm your mind, because it is something apart from you. That’s why you could observe it. Because if it was you, yourself, then you couldn’t observe it."
