The condition for receiving the Guidance without mixture from our preferences, opinions and hidden desires is inner Peace. It is only when the noise of desires and the masking voices of the ego are quietened then we are ready to receive the Guidance which generally comes as a gentle but clear indication. There is no restlessness, no insistence to follow it. In its quality it is like a clear, lucid whisper, a gentle nudge than a forced turning. With practice one begins to recognise it especially as one sees the consequences when one ignores it. Then the indication simply retires into the background and lets us go through the consequences and learn through them.
Affectionately,
Alok Da,
