Have self-confidence. Develop independent judgment. Cultivate the indomitable will.Practise self-control and self-mastery.
Do not argue. Strive ceaselessly for Self-realisation. Kill this little ego. Develop pure love.Rise above all distinction of caste, creed and colour.
Give up the idea of “I-ness” and “mine-ness”. Look within for the happiness which you have sought in vain in sensual objects.
With the development of our inner and subtle resources, such as the development of discrimination, we slowly gain control over our thoughts and we begin automatically to perfom right action. Thought and speech now become easier and natural. Due to our continued development we learn what desires lead us toward freedom and what desires lead us to further bondages, and the latter we avoid. Under normal activities of life, decisions are relatively easy, but under pressure, stress and excitement we are put to the critical test. It is then that we fall back and rely on our inner strength and inner development to see us through.
