Yield Place to New, Sacred and Sublime Part – Thirty Nine

Yield Place to New, Sacred and Sublime

Turn the love that arises in you towards God. Dedicate your body to the Divine. This is the true mark of devotion. There are three constituents in man: the mind, the power of speech and the body. These three are called Thrikaranas – the three active agencies in man. It is when all three are used for sacred purposes, that man becomes sanctified.

Every human being needs to cultivate the spirit, irrespective of his beliefs. All need devotion. It is only spirituality that can purify the heart and mind of man. The second requirement is morality. Morality helps to purify Vaak (speech). The third is Dharmikam (Righteousness). All righteous deeds done by the body or hands sanctify a man.

It is through spirituality, morality and righteousness that the three instruments get purified. Only the one who has achieved this triple purity can realise the Divine, if any of these instruments are impure, he cannot realise the Divine.

To comprehend the Divine, man has to understand the subtle atomic principle that pervades the entire cosmos. The difficulty in comprehending the Divine was recognized by the Gopikas (ardent devotees of Lord Krishna) who declared: “How can we know you, oh Krishna! You are the subtlest among the subtle and vaster than the vastest among the 84 lakhs of species in the cosmos.”

With faith in the omnipresence of the Divine, man should engage himself in good deeds, cherish good thoughts and dedicate his life to good practices. His words should be words of truth. The ornaments he should cherish are truthfulness in speech, charity for the hands and listening to sacred lore for the ears. Develop faith in your divinity. Then you will redeem your life. Follow your conscience. Make your heart pure. You cannot realise the Divine by immersing yourself in worldly concerns….

Embodiments of Love! The New Year comes regularly year after year. But do you have any new thoughts? You do not shed your old, mistaken ideas. They should be given up, yielding place to new, sacred and sublime thoughts. Of what use is it to celebrate New Year days if you do not change your old ways of thinking and behaving? Make proper use of time which is both precious and sacred. Do not indulge in useless gossip. Develop good qualities like compassion, love and sympathy. Act as your own monitor and correct yourself by self-punishment. By a simple method you can control your wandering mind or your anger. Moreover, place your reliance on God.

Yield Place to New, Sacred and Sublime – A sacred path of renewal and higher living

Yield Place to New, Sacred and Sublime is a meaningful spiritual theme that reminds us that life must keep moving toward purity, growth, and higher understanding. A person cannot hold on forever to old habits, old hurts, old fears, and old ways of thinking. When the heart becomes ready to welcome what is noble, fresh, and divine, inner transformation begins. Spiritual life asks us to make space for better thoughts, better actions, and better values.

Yield Place to New, Sacred and Sublime teaches that the old must be examined carefully. Not everything old is bad, because wisdom, tradition, devotion, and noble culture are precious. But old anger, old jealousy, old selfishness, old pride, and old negative patterns must be released. If the mind remains crowded with impurities, sacred qualities cannot enter fully. A room must be cleaned before a lamp can shine brightly.

Human beings often cling to familiar weaknesses. Even when anger disturbs peace, people continue to defend it. Even when pride creates distance, people hold it tightly. Even when desires make life restless, the mind refuses to let go. Yield Place to New, Sacred and Sublime reminds us that growth requires courage. To become better, we must allow the lower nature to fade and the higher nature to rise.

The new in spiritual life does not mean chasing novelty or forgetting truth. It means awakening fresh awareness. Every morning gives a new chance to speak kindly, forgive someone, serve better, pray sincerely, and correct mistakes. A person who lives with awareness does not remain trapped in yesterday’s failure. Such a person learns, rises, and continues walking toward God.

Yield Place to New, Sacred and Sublime also points toward sacred living. Sacredness is not limited to temples, rituals, or holy places. A home becomes sacred when family members speak with love. Work becomes sacred when done honestly. Food becomes sacred when taken with gratitude. Speech becomes sacred when it comforts instead of hurting. Life becomes sacred when every action is offered to God.

The sublime refers to what is higher, purer, and more beautiful than ordinary selfish living. It is the joy of truth, the peace of prayer, the strength of self-control, and the sweetness of compassion. When a person rises above ego and desire, life gains a deeper fragrance. Yield Place to New, Sacred and Sublime encourages the seeker to choose noble thoughts over harmful thoughts and divine purpose over worldly restlessness.

This teaching is especially important for the mind. The mind collects many impressions from what we see, hear, speak, and think. If we fill it with gossip, anger, comparison, and fear, it becomes polluted. If we fill it with prayer, good company, sacred teachings, and service, it becomes peaceful. Inner renewal begins when we choose what enters the mind.

Yield Place to New, Sacred and Sublime also teaches the value of forgiveness. Many people carry old wounds for years. They remember insults, repeat painful memories, and allow bitterness to rule the heart. But a heart full of old pain cannot easily receive divine peace. Forgiveness does not mean approving wrong actions. It means freeing the heart from hatred and allowing healing to begin.

Desires also need renewal. A life ruled only by comfort, praise, money, and status remains spiritually small. The seeker must replace greed with contentment, laziness with discipline, pride with humility, and selfishness with service. This does not happen in one day. But every sincere effort creates a new inner direction.

Yield Place to New, Sacred and Sublime reminds us that service is one of the best ways to become new. When we help others, the heart expands. Feeding the hungry, comforting the sad, guiding the confused, and supporting the weak remove self-centered thinking. Service makes life sacred because it turns love into action. The hands that serve become instruments of divine grace.

Prayer also helps us welcome the sacred and sublime. A simple prayer from the heart can cleanse the mind and give courage to change. We can pray, “Lord, remove what is impure in me and fill my heart with love, truth, and peace.” Such prayer creates humility. It reminds us that transformation happens through both effort and grace.

In the end, Yield Place to New, Sacred and Sublime is a sacred call to inner renewal. It asks us to release old negativity and welcome higher values. When anger gives place to patience, pride gives place to humility, selfishness gives place to service, and fear gives place to faith, life becomes beautiful. The real newness is not outside; it is the awakening of divine qualities within the heart.
