Power from Within
(inner strength - the power within)

Query: Power from Within... Inner strength derived by travelling spiritual path!

Kaivalya Jnani:
Whenever we get bogged down in life... we always look forward to an external source. Books and in particular autobiographies of famous men always inspire us. "Law of success" by Napoleon hill is more than a Bible for one. Totally out of harmony from within... the books of Napoleon hill provide the much needed solace.

The real strength comes from our own character... the path of truthfulness that we are supposed to follow. Unless we are truthful to self... no matter whom we look forward to... the happiness we search for always eludes us. We have to follow the path of absolute truthfulness to stand up and face life again.

Utmost of all is the strength of our own soul atman that always prompts us on the right path. Our soul atman is the real essence of life that has manifested this body and not otherwise. It is the rightful owner of this body in the present manifestation. It is only when our body prompted by ego takes a different path other than prompted by our soul atman within... the disparity occurs!

To hear the sweet small inner voice coming from within... the voice of our soul atman residing within our heart... we need to follow the path of absolute truthfulness. Unless we can do that... one shall not hear the voice of our soul atman. Human beings who scaled forbidden barriers were those who had a knack for hearing the voice of our soul atman within.

It is hearing the sweet small inner voice of our soul atman within (and subsequently following the dictates)... one reaches the end of cosmic life... the 8.4 millionth manifestation. One finally gains enlightenment (kaivalya jnana) and salvation (moksha).

In my search for God, I developed this capability early in life. As young as 15 years of age, I was clearly able to hear the promptings of my soul atman within that always guided me on the right path. For this we only need to follow the path of absolute truthfulness.
