Week 46: The Promise of the Scriptures
Our Reading and Affirmation For November & December
What is it to Make Peace?
Stanza 7
“Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.”
From the book
The Beatitudes: Their Inner Meaning by Swami Kriyananda
Rays of One Light: Weekly Commentaries on the
Bible and The Bhagavad Gita
by Swami Kriyananda
Supreme blessedness is that yogi’s who has completely calmed his mind, controlled his ego-active tendencies (rajas), and purged himself of desire, thereby attaining oneness with Brahma, the Infinite Spirit.
Week 45 The Promise of the Scriptures
What inspired me from this week’s reading from the Rays of One Light to share with everyone was…
“In God’s eyes, however, when human beings go astray there is nothing to forgive. All of us are aspects, only, of His own Self. He who made us resides in us. He is not far away from us in some far-off heaven. His call to us, always, is to return to our own home, within”.
We will take these words into our meditation together for reflection. But firstly we will listen to
“Canticle of the Creatures (by Saint Francis)”
Melody by Swami Kriyananda
Canticle of the Creatures (by Saint Francis)
Let’s Reflect on
“In God’s eyes, however, when human beings go astray there is nothing to forgive. All of us are aspects, only, of His own Self. He who made us resides in us. He is not far away from us in some far-off heaven. His call to us, always, is to return to our own home, within”.
