The fire of divine love that burns in the devotee's heart is used in three ways: as a light of worship, bringing awareness to God's omnipresence; as the warmth of generosity, serving God in all; and as the fire of self-discipline, casting into the fire of self-restraint those thoughts, words, and actions that are not useful to the soul's expression.

The awakening of shakti, or spiritual energy, is like lighting a fire in your home. It is useful if it is contained and tended. Then the fire can be used for cooking or heating the house. Without the container, it will burn the house down. Spiritual practice is the container for awakened energy.

When we pray in secret, communing with God in the silent chambers of the soul, God responds to us openly through the channels of perception in the world-dreams, synchronicities, events or communications.
