Prayer
O Spirit bless us,
That we establish the temple of purity in ourselves -
Within our hearts, our thoughts, our feelings -
That our countenance may be an illumined altar
Of Thy peace and love.
Don’t Be Overly Sensitive - Control Your Moods Instantly - Your Face Should Be a Beacon of Peace for Others to Follow
When anything distresses you, no matter how you justify your unhappiness, know that you are succumbing to undue sensitivity, and that you must not indulge in it. Sensitiveness is an unspiritual habit, a nervous habit, a peace-destroying habit that takes away your control over yourself and robs you of your happiness. Whenever a mood of sensitiveness visits your heart, its static prevents you from hearing the divine song of healing peace that plays within through the radio of the soul. Whenever sensitiveness appears, try immediately to conquer that emotion.
Those who are spiritually sensitive are discriminatingly watchful of their own feelings and are keenly perceptive of the feelings of others, but they remain aloof from the disturbances of psychological impulses....If necessary, hide yourself in a room away from others until the fever of sensitiveness is gone. The face is the reflector of your inner self; the heart, the source of feelings, is the basis of that reflection....Your face should be an altar where peace (and love) reign.
-Paramahansa Yogananda, Journey to Self-Realization p 157.
