The divinity you have as the core of your being, you ignore; at the same time, you seek it in others. That is the tragedy. You insult yourself by feeling helpless, weak and inferior, cowardice and self-condemnation, these do not become a spark of the Divine flame. Once the ego is suppressed, that very moment two consequences follow : Freedom from grief and Freedom from joy. To achieve this great consummation, you must take one step after another. Good deeds like puja, japam, dhyana, the observance of vows etc; are steps; good thoughts like prayer for greater discrimination, more chance to help others - also help. Slowly, steadily, cleanse the mind; sharpen the intellect; purify the senses and win grace. -BABA
