One who practices yoga works hard-giving full energy and attention to the work at hand--but they do not struggle. Struggle accompanies lack of faith. We struggle when we are trying to create something and we believe we are on our own.

One who stands on the steady ground of faith in God is not driven by the reactions arising from likes and dislikes. The even-mindedness that comes from faith brings freedom.

In the beginning of sadhana, spiritual practice is random and intermittent. With dedication and perseverance, practice becomes steady, an integral part of each day. Through self-discipline and God's grace, one's life begins to turn to God completely. Like a pilgrim circling the Kaaba, Self-realization is the center of all one thinks, says, and does.
