The vision of God is possible with the power that is gained through concentration of the mind. At that time we will come to know that God is everywhere, everything is God.
How to attain concentration? There are no short cuts. Constant practice is needed. In the beginning, it is a great thing if by chance we get even one or two minutes of concentration in an hour. We should make continuous and sincere effort without stopping until we gain one pointed concentration.
The mind always has expectations. In order to experience pure consciousness, this nature of the mind must disappear.
When a flower is still a bud, we cannot experience its beauty or fragrance. We have to wait patiently for the bud to unfold on its own. Only then can we fully experience its beauty and fragrance.
We should acquire control of the mind and possess the power to stop it, like the brakes of a new car reduce the speed and stop the vehicle whenever necessary.
A mind clouded by attachment cannot distinguish between right and wrong.
