‘Expansion is life’, says Swami Vivekananda. Humans can be their own masters and overcome all difficulties that will come in their path in the process of growing. It is religion which gives people the self-confidence and the will to remain undaunted by all the trials and tribulations in their lives. In this fleeting world, spirituality alone remains constant. Realizing the truth behind the ever changing world alone can help is overcoming difficulties of life. To know the truth that happiness is not external can be achieved only through spiritual growth. Spiritual growth cannot happen when we are under the notion that God is someone sitting in heaven with a remote control. Spiritual growth happens when we see God in all animate and inanimate.   Strength, courage, and self-confidence — these, according to Swami Vivekananda, constitute the essence of religion; all other things are peripheral. The growth is not physical or material; it is moral and spiritual. According to Swami Viv

Yogaja is a super-sensuous intuition of things and events in the past, present and future. This power of omniscience is possessed by the accomplished yogins. Others will have to exercise their powers of concentration to acquire this power. These are respectively called the yukta yogins and the yunjana yogins.
