let go of the past
Sadhakas must be warned against the tricks of memory, of which nothing is more harmful, nothing more destructive to the peace of mind which is necessary for successful sadhana. It cannot be too often recommended to them to forbear looking into the past with its trials and errors, acts of omission and commission, regrets, fear, passion, love and hatred, personal tragedies, etc. Everything is dust, everything transitory, including the seemingly indissoluble human ties, more so wealth and fame, and thus, not worth a moment’s regret. Nothing is changeless and lasting but the natural state of the pure being. ~ Sri Ramana Maharshi source http://sriradhakund.wordpress.com/2009/10/11/amrita-vani/
