The spiritual head of Sadhu Vaswani Mission in Pune, Dada J P Vaswani was born on August 2, 1918, at Hyderabad-Sind. Being a brilliant student, he was given a number of double promotions and thus passed the the B.S. examination when just seventeen. A masters degree and fellowship at a leading college followed and Dada seemed poised at the threshold of a brilliant academic or civil services career. It was at this stage that he gave it all up and decided to follow his uncle and guru, Sadhu T.L. Vaswani, a mystic and philosopher on the spiritual path. Reaching out to people with a message of spirituality became his life mission. As editor of Excelsior magazine, he was initially met with opposition as not everyone related to the spiritual dimension. Still, he took it upon himself to write, proof read, print, get advertisements, package and post the magazine all by himself. The publications popularity grew to the extent that it surpassed the circulation of the leading daily newspaper, The Sind Observer. Ask Dada J P Vaswani |  |
You need not follow rituals but everyday try to come in direct touch with God preferably at the same time and at the same place. Go and sit in silence and speak to God. In the beginning, you may not be able to hear His voice but be sure that he hears every whisper of the human soul. Develop a relationship of love and devotion with God. Say to Him, You are my father or you are my mother or you are my brother or you are my friend or you the beloved of my heart or you are my Master and my All. Then keep strengthening this link everyday.
According to the Law of Karma you reap only what you sow. There are people who have sown very good seeds in the past but are not doing the same any longer. They will keep on reaping the fruit of what they have sown in the past.
Make God your friend. He will never take advantage of you, though it could always be reverse. To make friends with God, spend at least fifteen minutes in silence (preferably at the same time and the same place) and speak to God. In the beginning you may not be able to hear his sweet, still voice. But be sure that He hears you. When God becomes your friend, you need none other.
If we want the results of our karma in this very birth, we would be crushed. Then, we would ask the Ever-merciful One to let us work out our karma in installments. Until the day comes when we are able to surrender ourselves at the Lotus Feet of the Lord.

You can consult your doctor, and if he permits, you can take a course of Restyl tablets until your sleeping pattern becomes satisfactory.
When a negative thought comes to you, without delay, (immediately) drive it out and substitute it with a positive one. Say to the negative thought with all the force you can command: “House full: no place for you!”
