The
greatest obstacle in the path of surrender is egoism
(ahamkaram) and Attachment or Possessiveness
(mamakaram). This is ingrained in your personality
since ages and its tentacles go deeper and deeper with the
experience of every succeeding life. It can be removed only
by the twin detergents of discrimination and renunciation.
Devotion is the water to wash away this dirt of ages, and
the soap of japam, dhyaanam and
yoga (repetition of God's name, meditation and
communion) will help to remove it quicker and more
effectively. Slow and steady progress will surely win the
race in this one; quicker means of travel can spell
disaster. Proceed step by step in your spiritual practices
- placing one steady step before you take the next. Do not
waver or slide back two paces with one step forward.
Cultivate deep faith - that will make your progress
steady!
Bagavan Sri Sri Sri Sathya Sai Baba
