Quotes for the day

"Be Impeccable With Your Word. Speak with integrity. Say only what you mean. Avoid using the word to speak against yourself or to gossip about others. Use the power of your word in the direction of truth and love."

~ Miguel Angel Ruiz

"Perfection is achieved, not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away."

~Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

While perfection is unattainable, impeccability is. Impeccability is purity in thought and action. Analyze your emotions to peel back the layers of the Ego to see the true nature underneath. This allows us to be and act at a more elevated perception of ourselves and others than just from the position of Ego.

Together we see clearly,

In Sanskrit grammar, first person is called Uttama Purusha. It means that only the superior person has a right to speak. If one does not have something important to say, why open one's mouth ? Mauna-vrata expiates many sins and increases the power of concentration and meditation. Word is God, and useless expenditure of words removes a person away from God. One who practises Mauna is a Muni. Whatever such a person utters or writes is valuable.

Best definitions of Mauna and A-mauna are given by Sage Yajnavalkya in Brihad-āranyaka-upanishada. Amauna is that state in which mind can think in terms of words. Mauna is the transcendental state of samādhi. It cannot be described in words. It is beyond this world, beyong human senses, even beyond Shabda-brahma.
