Nurture Your Mental Garden
Develop a discerning mind that can differentiate between the authentic and the trivial.
The fertile soil of tropical regions, under the nurturing influence of sunlight and nature, produces a rich array of fruits, flowers, and vegetation that humans find desirable.
Yet, this same soil also fosters the growth of weeds and unwanted plants. This duality mirrors the mental and spiritual landscape in India, where these profound teachings originated. The mental soil, so conducive to spiritual enlightenment, is equally susceptible to the proliferation of superstition and lower spiritual ideals.
As Yogi Ramacharaka observed, “India is a land of marked spiritual contrasts—the highest and the lowest are to be found there side by side.”
