Continuing our preparation for Easwaran’s life celebration on Sunday, October 25, let’s study Easwaran’s article “The Good Student: Earnestness and Enthusiasm” on pages 46–53 of the 2017 Blue Mountain Journal Teacher and Student. Here Easwaran narrates, “I kept plugging. Every day my limitless love for Sri Krishna reassured me that someday, somehow, a door would open and let me through.” Let us keep plugging too this month and together move closer to our teacher and our goal! You can read details of how to participate in the Life Celebration at www.bmcm.org/celebration.
What is Easwaran telling you about the workings of your own mind? This week, use this new understanding to get some cooperation from your mind when it is being uncooperative. Tell us how it goes!
Continuing our reflection for Sri Easwaran’s Life Celebration, think about your daily or weekly schedule. Think of one small way you could tweak that schedule to “put meditation first” in the upcoming year. Write it down in specific terms.
We look forward to spending time with Easwaran – and with you – in BMCM Satsang Live this week.
For this week’s spiritual treat, here is the next excerpt from Quietly Changing the World.
