Tonic for the Mind - 32

"'Face It". The world will give us experiences,whether we want them or not. We face the world not with our talents, money or body; we face the world with our mind alone, our convictions. We have to use the mind as an elevator to tune our habits to our convictions in order to be the ruler of our experiences; if not the experiences will trample over and crush us. Our convictions guided by faith evokes strength and whenever any experience pulls our mind down, our convictions will help to lift us out.

- Swami Abhedananda
