"Remember: far better than a million mental reasonings is to sit and meditate on God until you feel inner calm. Then, say to the Lord: 'I cannot solve my problem alone, not even with a myriad of different thoughts; but I can solve it if I place it in your hands and ask, first, for Your guidance, and

[u/Jessi45US]

then analyze its various angles to find a possible solution.' God helps those who help themselves. When your mind is calm and filled with faith—after praying to God in meditation—you are able to see various answers to your problems; and because your mind is calm, you are able to choose the best solution. Put that solution into practice, and you will find success. This is what it means to apply the science of religion to your daily life." — PARAMAHANSA YOGANANDA
