What is the connection between our actions, devotion and spiritual wisdom?

 A piece of Mysorepaak (a sweet delicacy) has sweetness, weight, and shape; these cannot be separated, one from another. Each little part has sweetness, weight, and shape. We don’t find shape in one part, weight in another, and sweetness in a third! And when it is placed on the tongue, the taste is recognised, weight is lessened, and shape is modified - all at the same time! So too, the individual, the Soul, and the Supreme Lord are not separate; they are one and the same! Therefore, each individual deed must be full of the spirit of selfless service, divine love, and spiritual wisdom. In other words, each of life’s activities must be saturated with dedicated action, devotion to God, and spiritual wisdom. This is verily Yoga of the Supreme (Purushothama-yoga). It must be enacted in practice, not merely spoken in words! Spiritual discipline should be done constantly with an ever-expanding heart full of devotion and spiritual wisdom.
