Strive to diagnose your own character

1.Life is not a mathematical formula, where 2 plus 2 always equals 4. To some, it may be 3, and to others, 5. It depends on how each values the number ‘2’. In the spiritual path, each one has to move forward from where they already are, with the light of the lamp which every one holds in their own hands. Strive to diagnose your own character and discover the faults that are infesting it; do not try to analyze the qualities of others and seek to spot their defects. This self-examination is very necessary to bring to light the deficiencies that will undermine your spiritual career. Demons are typically too conceited to bend before the Lord; they put too much trust in arms and numbers, ignoring the subtler and stronger forces of the spirit, which can annihilate the vices within oneself. Never try to hide your faults; be ashamed of them and endeavour to cleanse them fast.
