The Sermon on the Mount.....(6)by Swami Prabhavananda

Jesus said; "Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God "..........The method of God Realization that Jesus teaches is the purification of the Heart...which leads to the perfection needed for seeing God....distractions are the major problem of the soul that keeps it from experiencing God at every moment...these distractions show that the mind is still impure, and therefore not ready to receive the vision of God....the impurities consist of various impressions which the mind has gathered from birth to birth...the impressions have been stored in the subconscious mind as the result of an individual's thoughts and actions, and in their totality, they represent his character...these impressions must be dissolved completely before the mind can be considered pure............
