It is not so much a set of rules as it is a set of attitudes that we must have.
The foremost among these should be a never ending urge for progress, the thirst to know more and more, to learn more and more, to grow more and more.
Keep the wants to a minimum as desires distract us and make us restless.
Receive with gratitude what life and destiny and God has to offer and do not covet what others have.
Regularity, self-discipline and moderation are the keys with regard to regulating the flow of life.
We must know that nobody is in a race with anyone. Each one is on a unique journey along a path uniquely his own and a place that he alone is meant to occupy. Therefore to discover our unique aim and the road we are meant to take is of crucial importance as it is this that will give value and quality to our life.
And if we are fortunate to find the spiritual path we are meant to walk upon and the Master who is meant to guide us, then we should cleave with all our heart and faith regardless of whatever happens in our outer life.
Affectionately,
Alok da.
