🌻 Travelling with Good Vehicles 🌻

Our planet can be compared with a station where many travellers arrive, stay for a while and leave it again. 

We are travellers who through long cycles of time proceed on the path of evolution. The traveller is the inner man or the soul, the outer man or the body is the vehicle. 

All of us are on a great journey and use for it different vehicles. With the time they get broken and we need new ones. We should not try to look too much after an old vehicle and hold on to it. With a new and better vehicle the journey is faster and more comfortable.

A bad vehicle doesn’t allow us to go on a long journey. If we have developed obstructions in our physical body, it delays our high endeavours. 

With yoga asanas we can make our physical bodies limber and flexible like a leaf, which doesn’t break when it is bent. Regular exercises help to establish harmony between the gross and the subtle.

The human bodies, which have emerged since 1945 are considered to be better models that the earlier ones, because today new energies are available. 

The bodies conceived since 1962 are even better, and later there were further improvements. 

So there is a constant work on producing a better technology and design. Therefore today’s children are more electric; their apprehension is far superior to that of their ancestors.

Each time a soul comes into a body in order to continue its journey; it is accompanied by the personality. 

The personality uses the body more for its purposes than for the purposes of the soul, and it accomplishes more its intentions. We look for the pleasing, for ease for the body, for comfort at home and for a financial cushion. 

We confine the soul through our desires and through accumulating material or mental ballast and restrict ourselves. The activity of the senses also keeps us in the objective world: Our attention continues to travel to the outside. 

Even when we close our eyes and want to turn inward, the mind has an urge to go outside, and the thoughts carry us along. 

There is no real inner contemplation taking place, even if we seem to meditate seen from the outside.
