Tonic for the Mind

Mind stands between two natures in life - the lower,

made ugly by the clamours of our passions, and the

upper, rendered beautiful with the harmony of peace.

The mind can reflect both sides. The more and more

the mirror of mind is turned inward it reflects the calm

serenity of the harmony of the Self and we feel joyous.

Melancholy is the language of delusion. Joy is the

music of Truth.

- Swami Chinmayananda
