THE GOLDEN RULES FOR SELF-CONTROL FOR YOUTHS

PRESERVATION OF SEMEN IS THE ESSENCE OF BRAHMACHARYYA. -          Patanjali

POWERS - PHYSICAL, MENTAL, MORAL AND SPIRITUAL – ARE THE NATURAL OUTPUTS OF BRAHMACHARYYA. -          Patanjali

PHYSICAL

1	For the preservation of semen, attempt physically, mentally and orally with an unflinching strength of purpose.
2	Take plain, moderate, unexciting diet; fast on special religious days.
3	Carefully shun all objects of luxury; luxury includes every article of living which is not indispensable for us in dress and diet.
4	Strictly give up all intoxicating things, such as Tea, Coffee, Tobacco, Betel leaves, Snuff etc.
5	Don’t use bedding and clothing that are not your own.
6	Make it a point to go to bed “alone” on your own bed and never deviate an inch from that.
7	Don’t sleep for more than five hours a day.
8	Put on “Koupin” (loin cloth) (proper undergarment) day and night.
9	Take regular physical exercise/ Yoga, at least once a day.
10	Make it a point not to touch another’s body except on necessity.
11	Never look wishfully upon the face of a woman, not even on that of a boy or girl.
12	Never speak except on necessity.

THE GREAT FOUNDER OF BHARAT SEVASHRAM SANGHA ACHARYA SREEMAT SWAMI PRANAVANANDAJI MAHARAJ Born on 29th January, 1896 (On Maghi Purnima) Mahanirvan on 8th January, 1941 (On Shukla Ekadashi) The first and foremost duty of a student is to build up character. Along with study, the building of moral character is absolutely necessary. Without this, nothing will be done.”  “Those who aspire after self-improvement and follow these golden rules are dearer to me than my life itself.  Wherever and in whatever condition they may be, I will be always with them; my power will always save them whenever they will seek it.”

MENTAL

1	Always keep your mind and body employed in some sort of work, study or other.
2	Always keep your mind busy with good thoughts, noble ideas, high aspirations, and engage yourself in the study of instructive books, in meditation and in prayer.
3	Never allow any bad thought to enter your heart under any pretext.
4	If evil thoughts creep into your heart in anyway, repent, and do penance for the sin, and pray to GOD for forgiveness, help and guidance.
5	Just before you go to bed leave off all thoughts of self and resign yourself solely in to the contemplation of the LORD.
6	Daily read a portion of the Bhagwad Geeta, Sangha-Geeta or other religious books and learn by rote one of the shlokas.
7	Repeat the name of the LORD and meditate upon Him at least for two hours daily.
8	Before going to bed examine yourself and keep a regular diary of your daily progress, digress or retrogress.

The Sangha Vani

This is the age of Universal Awakening, Universal Harmony, Universal Unity and Universal Emancipation.

Ten Universal Messages of

Acharya Swami Pranavanandaji Maharaj 

(The Founder of Bharat Sevashram Sangha)

 - For Humanity

- Irrespective Of Caste, Colour, Creed & Religion

1	What is the Goal? Self- Realisation Universal Emancipation.		6	What are real Sins? Weakness, Fear (Defeatism), Cowardice, Meanness and Selfishness
2	What is Religion? Self- Sacrifice  (Self-abnegation) Self-discipline Adherence to truth and continence		7	What are real sources of Strength? Patience, Fortitude and Endurance
3	What is Death? Forgetfulness of the ‘Self’		8	What are real Assets? Self-confidence, Self-reliance and Self-respect
4	What is real life? Self-Possession Self-Remembrance Self-Consciousness		9	What are real Enemies? Indolence, Slumber, Procrastination, Inertia, Lustful senses and Passions
5	What are real Virtues? Heroism Virility Manliness Aspiration for emancipation		10	What are real Friends? Energy, Enthusiasm and Perseverance

“The essence of Religion lies in its Practice and Realisation.  Spirituality is not something to be gained by scriptural studies or from hearsay.  Mad indeed is the one who thinks of unravelling the mysteries of spiritual life with the help of a mind torn by passions, tyrannized by the senses and agonized by carnal hankerings.”
