Unparalleled joy
Santoshathuttama Sukhalabhaha|
Santosha means contentment or happiness within. What one is and has in the present moment, with the practice of Santosha, one attains to unparalleled gain of happiness and comfort says Sri Patanjali. When there is Santosha, the mind is not hankering for this or that. It is totally content with what you have - the clothes, the food, the house, the footwear, the vehicles or the knowledge. When the mind is at rest with Santosha, it is totally present to the Presence, which is the source of all joy, happiness and comfort. - Swahilya Shambhavi.

Thanks very much for sharing!
Swagatam! Dhanyavadaha!
The American justice Dept. have recently approved the power of yoga and meditation vide a recent judgement in the American court." Man Who Slapped Wife Sentenced to Yoga, It's Anger Management, Says Judge." First there was house arrest. Now there's yoga.Yogi is a seer or sage who, by deep and long meditation, prayer, study of man and the universe, at last reaches illumination or wisdom, whereby he thoroughly understands the many perplexing problems of life and can solve them. The Yogis have the very highest respect and the purest love for women. We know that woman is a finer organization than man, and in India, you never hear the Hindus of culture or refinement ever refer to woman as the "weaker vessel." Man to reach his highest development must look up to woman, the mother of creation, and love her with the highest and purest love, and respect her with the highest respect. No man can become great until he has this respect for woman. Woman is the "finer vessel," and not the "weaker vessel."
Meditation can control anger also. "Anger is a very powerful emotion that can
stem from feelings of frustration, hurt, annoyance or disappointment.
It is a normal human emotion that can range
from slight irritation to strong rage.
Anger can be harmful or helpful, depending upon how it is expressed.
Welcome Bhattathiri! That was a wonderful information indeed!
