No doubt the world will be paradise, but for that we have to work very hard
That is why Master had said we have to work very hard. Revered Master says” We have to gird our loins to sacrifice our pleasures and shake off idleness, so that all of us can rise as sun of spirituality. (Sparkles and Flashes) The commandments given by our Revered Master have to be practiced and over a period of time, they should become natural as our way of living. In the course of sadhana there are ups and downs and many times there are situations of disappointments, which hamper our movement further. In the message, “ Love Him who loves all”, Revered Master had mentioned that, “ I never felt disappointed and worked single handed and the result is before us all. I have full confidence in myself with the Masters hand at my back and it has always worked. The
same thing I want from all of you.”
Many times we are not confident about ourselves and also of the Master’s support, not having confidence in one self is because of the reason that our original nature of dependence on God is still not understood. We think we are the doers. When we yield to the Master as a ‘bandha’ we can never get disappointed of His support or loose confidence in ourselves. Regular sadhana alone makes us understand the dependency on Master and strengthen our faith in Him.
Only when there is confidence in ourselves, which is backed by the support of Master, we can offer prayer for the betterment of others. 9’O clock prayer becomes meaningful only then. We should offer prayer without anticipation of results. Earlier there was a misconception in my mind that persons will join the system as a result of my prayer which is true but later I could understand the ego and doer-ship behind the prayer, now gradually I am able to come out of it. Now prayer is offered with confidence in Master and without anticipation of results. Master has mentioned that we should work very hard
