It is only an expandingof your awareness into the various petals of your own existence.Make an investment of yourself as your consciousness into theprocess. While you are eating you should invest the taste andsatiation into Yoga. If you are working in your office, you thinkof the usefulness of your work, then it is invested into the processof Yoga. Just as the experienced businessman makes a wiseinvestment of his money to multiply it, you should make a wiseinvestment of your consciousness into everything to get theYoga experience in return. As the businessman invests millionsof dollars in a business, he knows that he is making the dollarsdouble or triple. “Only your spirit of offering makes you purchaseeternity” say the scriptures. These are some examples of theaccessories.“How long should I make an attempt and how long shouldI go on applying myself like this?” The answer is that until thisquestion disappears from your mind. The Yogic scientists havebeen very trickish and intricate all along. As long as the abovequestion is there in your mind, it means that you are living differentfrom your process of discipline. You have not identified yourselfwith your path of discipline. “The disciple should become thepath” say the Masters of Wisdom. You have to do it until thequestion disappears from your mind. Live as an ordinary man(not a self-imposed Yogi) and wait until you can do it. Thereshould be no half-way because it kills your time either way.Had you been wise you ought not have entered it at all. If youwant to be only an observer of the results, then your curiosityto know many things and to read many books will intoxicateyou and keep you engaged until you die.There are people who do not spare a moment in readingbooks about spiritualism, Yoga, philosophy, Masters and Magicand they do not know that they are going to die in the process.

People want to study various schools ofthought for the purpose of knowing how the one differs from theother. A costly experiment with the costliest commodity, theirspan. Their whole life serves the purpose of a candle burning in aroom where there is no one. Stop doing this. Do not remainoutside. Enter and you will find yourself within the courtyard ofthe Temple. Make an offering of your abode and courtyard asthe Temple. Make your office your abode. Either you shouldmake a total surrender of yourself, or If you do not think itworthwhile, stay outside and enjoy the world according to yourown concept. If you make half-hearted attempt you will loseboth.The Gurus say “Wait for the proper time of your evolution.”They are not ready to waste your time by recruiting you beforetime. When you want they are ready. Clever they are andbenevolent they are at the same time. Energies will be spentmeaninglessly by doing things half-hearted. There is no halfwayin spiritualism. Some intellectuals are always busy gatheringvarious schools of thought to know which is the best. They areburning their span and killing themselves. Remember that theuniversal truth is broken into the various theories and actionsof the world. Every bit of it is a splinter of truth but no splinterserves the purpose of a vessel. The totality of the universe isthe real container of truth. Therefore, do not go into curiosity.Every philosophy and every ideology is a splinter of truth thatcontains a grain of truth. No splinter serves the function of thevehicle of truth. That is how the Masters advise us.
