A religious life consists of embracing the lifestyle of denying the body’s desires and conforming to the wishes of the mind. We must do it for a period of three to five years or even more, until it becomes habitual. After that, we are told to pray without ceasing. Since the mind easily falls prey to external influences, you need to offer devotions from the midway position. Do that until you have gained three to four times your present power.

When people are confident, they have a place deep in their hearts where the soul can feel comfortable. Your mind should find the way to this place. When it has slept away some of its fatigue, it will become sensitive again. If you use this moment to focus your mind without any other thoughts in your head, then you will be able to figure everything else out. Thus, you must meditate and pray.

Some people try to grow spiritually, develop their own spititual life and reach God through meditation, self-discipline, etc. This is very stupid. The one who goes to God fastest and achives the closest position is the one who loves others and witnesses to them in order to bring them to God. You can grow much faster snd develop much mor quickly. Don't just meditate for you own spirit. You may draw some spirits, but not God. No matter how much you pray, it doesn't do much good if you are only centered upon yourself. Allways love others.
