The mind is the abode of Iswara but we make a rubbish can of it. We must cleanse it, install the Lord in it and be at peace with ourselves. We must devote at least five minutes every day to meditation and resolve to do so even if the world crashes around us. There is nothing else that will give us a helping hand when the whole cosmos is dissolved.
It is by helping the poor and by spreading the glory of the Lord that we will earn merit.
-His Holiness Sri Chandrasekarendra Saraswathi Swamigal.
