• Give

  ---

  When a beggar comes to our house, usually we dispose of what is left over or overripe.
  You could never persuade Gurudev to do that.
  He always said: "What is not fit for my consumption, is not fit for anyone else either."
  

• Meditate

  ---

  The mind must be alert and fresh during meditation - if it is not, then something has gone wrong.
  Either a quick shower was indicated or a few more Yoga postures or a little more Yoga breathing.

• Realise

  ---

  He dwells in the heart of each living being, and it is He that makes us dance.
  He who realises this - is liberated.

• Give

  ---

  The Upanishads command us to give, give with respect and love, and give in plenty.
  That is the spirit.

• Meditate

  ---

  In our attempt to find what constitutes right action and right relationship, we find that one of the vital
  processes is meditation.
  This is not merely sitting on the floor morning and evening - it means keeping up this awareness perpetually.
