There is a time for everything; the time of spiritual awakening leaves its mark on a person’s life. Everything then takes on a different meaning, and one’s daily life is transformed. The path to understanding and tolerance is long; it takes time to admit one’s own shortcomings and weaknesses and to address them sensibly. Nothing is ever easy. Where would the challenge lie if there were no difficulties here below? From life to life a spiritual journey is carried out – it takes place, of course, when the soul has reached the level of Divine aspiration in its most productive phase. In this way of Sahaj Marg, motivated aspirants find what suits them; here, moderation and efficiency are necessary assets for advancing within the framework of an otherwise very busy life. “In this area, only the call of the heart is significant. Sooner or later it makes itself felt, attracting the approach that suits it. Sometimes after one has made a few attempts elsewhere, Sahaj Marg presents itself and matches the search in question. An incarnation is short in the face of the Eternal, and the Eternal holds many surprises. Great mystics of the past and present did not embark on such an approach with a precisely established intention. This is how grace operates: it chooses, it prepares what is to come for the future aspirant until it leads him where necessary, when necessary, for his own fulfillment. Each and every person has their own destiny; it differs for everyone. What matters is to achieve the most important thing in life – namely, the opening of a spiritual space that is in line with the deep aspiration of the seeker. May all find the right path, one in which the soul goes into raptures in a state of fervour. “Blessings to all.”
