How easy it is to be fooled by the world, putting time and attention into that which will not last. Be clear about priorities; seek first what brings lasting happiness, security, and peace. Paramahansa Yogananda counseled us to say to ourselves, “this can wait and that can wait, but my search for God cannot wait.”

One with an awakened heart remains rooted in the unchanging truth that underlies all conditions and therefore can maintain equanimity in the face of change, whether pleasant or unpleasant.

There are differences in the talents and abilities that people possess, but at the soul level, there is absolute equality. Everyone deserves the same respect; all are children of the one Father-Mother. Look through all appearances to the truth, and relate to others soul to soul.

See through the veil of differences to the unity of all life. This brings such joy to the heart that praise naturally arises. As this conscious relationship is courted, the field of God reveals itself to the devotee as omnipresent and vibrant with supportive grace.

As a flower offered to the Lord may be a rose or a daisy, our position in life or particular duty has no bearing on devotion. It is the quality of the heart within the action that matters.

The vision of oneness naturally leads to compassionate action and service of humanity because we see the pain and joy of others as our own. Just as we are instinctively inclined to care for our own body when it is injured, so one who is awake cannot resist caring for others.
