discontentment etc while in the mental plane it manifests as self aggrandizement, self-progress, self- ability (refer silence speaks page 90). Our excessive preoccupation with the sensory objects and sensuality has led to this condition which needs to be set right through right thinking and practice. The followers of the natural path are able to achieve the balance of mind which is experienced as peace through the methods of the Natural path and especially the meditations on Points A & B which are quite effective. It is quite reassuring to recall the words of the Master in this regard, “The abhyasis under our system of Sri Ramchandra’s Raja yoga practice on these points (points A & B) and find remarkable improvement. If the practice is systematically done on both these points, desires will soon begin to bid farewell.” ERY – 41 (First Edition).
Now coming to the aspect of working, we use the Will, which is the main instrument of working and it has to be utilized for betterment of the humanity. We find the will getting strengthened with the purification of the heart. Purification of heart means cleansing of desires. As we move towards the universal consciousness, our will becomes subtle, firm and also powerful. The negative factors which weaken the will are doubt and prejudice. If we think that it is our work or we are the doers then our inadequacies make us feel doubtful of the results and thus our will becomes infirm but on the other hand if we have attitude of participating in His work, then the doubt never arises. But the other factor which comes into our way is the prejudice. Master says, prejudice is the deadliest poison to spirituality. This also is an obstacle to the will in the sense that it bounds by our own notions. Pure intention to serve our fellow beings helps us in this regard. If we can think of our Master as an unalloyed love, the very conception helps in overcoming our prejudices and notions.
