Guest guest Posted December 17, 2008 Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 Journey to God Do not tarry on your journey to God. You fill up the petrol tank with fuel for the journey that lies ahead, is it not? When you propose to keep the car in the garage for long, you do not fill the tank. Well, the body too is fed with fuel so that it may go on a journey - journey to God. That journey is through karma (action), good and selfless action...The correct discipline to acquire this selfless (nishkaama) attitude is dedication; and dedication is possible only when you have intense faith in God. That faith becomes steady through spiritual effort. Namasmarana The mind is the mischief-maker; it jumps from doubt to doubt; it puts obstacles in the way. It weaves a net and gets entangled in it. It is ever discontented; it runs after a hundred things and away from another hundred. It is like a driver who drives the car with the master in it, wherever his fancy takes him. So take up the task of training it into an obedient servant; it is educable, if only you know how to do it. Place before it things more tasty and it will hanker only for those. Once it realizes the value of Naamasmarana (chanting His name), it will adhere to that method of getting peace and joy. So, start it now.
