Who Are you?

Where is the kingdom of you?
Jai Gurudev!!!
You have soldiers
Eyes to see, Ears to hear,
Tongue to taste,
Nose to Smell,
Body to touch and feel 


 
Your mind is the commander chief to the soldiers
The head (Mind) of soldiers (5 senses) should have proper control through regular and systematic training (yoga & Pranayama) to them and himself. Otherwise all will be out of control falling into addictions or crimes or wrong deeds or mistakes or even into lust (kama) or physical pleasure. For this only Brahmacharyam was followed in olden days from very young age.
Thoughts, words and actions are the output come out through the mind. The kingdom needs to be peaceful for that the soldiers to do good and vice-versa. So we need to watch out the soldiers to maintain peace in the memory. Grahastham (proper married life), vanaprastham and sanyasam were also helping to have proper control over senses.
 Today’s mental and physical diseases are due out of control mind and senses. (Kriya yoga helps to overcome this)
 
Your intellect is the minister

The intellect to be given right knowledge so that it guides others in the right path. One has to understand that reaching divinity is the purpose of life. Also needs to seek knowledge to attain the goal. What is the truth? Where is it? Who am I? Are the questions one to ask oneself again and again. 
Otherwise Intellect will fall into Greed and jealousy. Crimes because of desire for money happens by this. Peak of knowledge is seeing divine in everything and in oneself. Shankara revived this knowledge. Wisdom is to accept the divine and experience it within and everywhere.
Today intelligence means more money in the account and good status.(Gnana yoga helps to come over this)
Your memory is the kingdom
Good qualities in us will lead to good actions and in-turn good karma. Otherwise one will get into anger and hatred, which leads to violence. Impressions of our thoughts, words and actions are stored in the memory, called as karma. 
(Karma yoga helps to clean up this) 
 
 You are the Queen :-)
Raja (King) Or

Paramathma Or

The lord Or Soul.
Rani (Queen) Or

Jeevathma Or

I Or Ego.
 

One has to melt in bhakthi to experience the Athma inside. Otherwise one will be entangled or attached to people and objects. (Bhakti yoga helps to achieve the self)

The kingdom is within you and you are the queen. 
As in chess, the queen is  powerful, but king is more important.
Please do Art of Living courses to experience it yourself.
