Say I Have Set My Goal At 300 Pounds, And I Cannot Do It. The Very Fact That I Have Been Devotedly Practising And Practising Gives Me Joy, And The Tenacity Or Perseverance That I Am Showing Is Itself Progress. Anything That We Do Devotedly And Soulfully Helps Us Make Progress.

But In The Spiritual Life It Is Not Like That. If Consciously We Can Make The Mind Calm And Quiet, We Feel That A New Creation Dawns Inside Us.

Once We Have This Inner Peace, World Peace Can Be Achieved In The Twinkling Of An Eye.

Whether We Meditate Individually Or Collectively, There Is One Thing We Absolutely Must Do: We Have To Meditate Consciously.
