How to get Steady Mind?


God is immanent in the five elements - Earth, Water, Fire, Wind and Ether. Since there is no place in creation where the five elements do not exist, it can be concluded that God is all-pervasive. And yet, why is man unable to experience this divinity? Though water reflects objects, the image, unlike the object, is not steady. Similarly, man cannot be a perfect image of God if he has a wavering mind. Such a mind leads to confusion and depression, and with such a mind, a seeker can never realise the divinity within. What is essential for a steady mind is the control of the five senses and a ceiling on desires.

Dear Mr. Sivaprakash,
For last few months, I was completely involved in Civil Service Preparations, So, I couldn't return to your blog.
Now, I can find some free time, and I try to visit frequently.

Thank you
