There is tremendous dedication requested to those who are now taking the spiritual path. This path is for stark souls who have had enough of dragging their feet and are willing and dedicated to gradually give more and more intensity to transform themselves.
Do you drag your body absentmindedly to church once in a while to listen to Sunday sermons and nothing more in thinking you will get a degree of inner heaven, faith, spiritual satisfaction, peace and maybe a few answered prayers only to get that much and nothing more? Millions of people have no thoughts about spirituality and those who do, are comfortable with religious worship one or two hrs. per-week or with performing ceremonies and the reading of some religious or spiritual books.
In the light of introspection, keep awake to life’s highest duties and avoid the sleepwalkings of delusion and mechanical, useless actions as stated above. Having your own personal sanctuary in one’s home is very effective in fostering spirituality, because unlike a place of public worship it becomes personalized, and also because it is accessible for spontaneous devotional expressions throughout the day.
As the family room awakens your social consciousness, the library fosters reading consciousness, and the bedroom suggests sleeping. So everyone should have a room or a screened-off corner, or a well-ventilated closet, used exclusively for the purpose of silent meditation and prayer.
In these home temples, families learn to find the soul peace hidden behind the veil of silence. Here they introspect, and in prayer and meditation recharge themselves with the inner power of the soul, and in divine communion attune themselves to discriminative wisdom by which they may govern their lives according to the dictates of conscience and right judgment.
