When we take each step forward with positive thoughts and a smile, all good qualities will come to us and fill our being. Then God cannot possibly stay away from us.
The agony caused by the longing to see God is not sorrow; it is bliss. The state that we attain by calling and crying to God is equal to the bliss that the yogi experiences in samadhi.
If you make an effort to cultivate just one good quality, all the other good qualities will develop naturally within you.
To face different situations in life with presence of mind and mental poise, first we have to train the mind.
Only those who are humble can receive God's grace. In someone who perceives God's presence in everything, there is no room for the ego. So the first quality we need to develop within ourselves is humility.
Only by understanding what is everlasting and what is transitory can we progress in life without ever losing our mental balance or peace of mind.
