To declare before everybody that you are a sinner, that you are good for nothing, that you cannot do anything, that you are impure, is not the way to sinlessness, goodness, purity and perfection. Open your heart to Divine within and with a repentant mood seek His aid for strength and purification.

| Court humility. Negate the self at every moment. Try to feel your oneness with all. Develop motiveless and impersonal love through selfless service.

| Be sweet, gracious, tender, modest, loving and divinely peaceful. Then alone you are the moving Laxmi on earth deserving man’s adoration. |
| |
| Never see any fault or imperfection in any one. You are the seeker of perfection. Your business is to fix your mind on the ideal of perfection and not to dwell on imperfection. Seeing fault and imperfection in others cause a great hindrance to serenity and strength developed by meditations. |
| |
| Blame none. Yield not to frustration. Shed anxiety. Trust divine mercy and intervention of divine grace. God never tests His children. His nature is compassion, grace, love and forbearance. |
| |
| Reflect upon the vanities of life. Do not give much value to transient things. Rise above the mundane affairs. This life is only a passage to the infinity. Seek that which is permanent. Do your duty with detachment without clinging to any desire or empty hope. Expect nothing. Depending upon nothing but the Supreme, carry on your work in patient faith and cheerful equipoise. |
| |
| Why this faith in God or devotion to God is stressed? This is because; in God alone you find the perfect realization of your ideal, the perfect fulfillment of your aspirations and ambitions. To be the Self of all is to be absolutely selfless. This Self of all, is God. |
| |
| Whether you look upon yourself as identical with God or separate from God, you will ultimately realize Him, provided you approach Him with the longing of your heart and the love of your soul, for you are He. |
| |
| You can commune with God through the service of the world, through surrender to the Guru, through love for the chosen Deity, through a resort to the way of knowledge. |
| |
| Wander no more in the dense forest of books. Scripture has told already where Truth abides. Its purpose is only that much. Soul is the living scripture, where knowledge is eternally fresh. Go into your own soul. |
| |
| Let the silent Guru teach you. Be obedient. Scriptures can give you only information but the illumination comes out of Guru’s mercy. Obedience and service of the Guru are the means to the invocation of this mercy. Worship the Guru’s feet with devotion and humility, sacrificing the pride of learning. |
