Gita ...the path
to understand where we stand now is more important than to focus on what we would expect to happen afterwards.
Forgetting the present predicament is to become feeble at our base when we try to ascend further and further.
Every step that we take in spiritual life should be a firm step. It does not matter if we take only one step, but it should be a firm step.
If we hurriedly take steps, afterwards we may have to retrace our steps. That should not be done.
Even if years are needed to take these steps, it does not matter, as long as the little that we have achieved is a firm and solid achievement.
When the spiritual seeker passes some years in self abnegation, a determined spirit arises:
I have risen above all the desires of the world. I have had enough of all things. I am now here to fight the battle of life, to transcend the world, to face it, to overcome it,
and then to go beyond it.
