To awaken spiritual unity and to spread to others the love that is our inherent nature is the true goal of human life.
Only those who are humble can receive God's grace. In someone who perceives God's presence in everything, there is no room for the ego. So the first quality we need to develop within ourselves is humility.
We need to focus on our destination. Let the thoughts arising in your mind pass by, like watching scenery through the window of a car. The thoughts cannot affect you if you don't allow them to capture your attention.
We should acquire control of the mind and possess the power to stop it, like the brakes of a new car reduce the speed and stop the vehicle whenever necessary.
The tree can't emerge until the outer shell of the seed breaks. Similarly, you cannot know the Truth without totally destroying the ego.
Unfortunately, the only meaning that society attributes to life today is an opportunity to make money.
