Physical actions, creative use of our imagination, and setting intentions are the manifesting tools of the physical, mental, and subtle aspects of our being. One who focuses solely on the physical plane works harder, without the benefit of the power tools of the subtle realms and understanding the laws of cause and effect.

Some spiritual students come in the guise of seeking truth but really want comfort. Truth does not bring comfort; it brings us the freedom from needing it.

The wisdom of spiritual teachings diagnoses the disease of ignorance that causes suffering. Regular sadhana or right spiritual practice is the medicine that supports the cure. Like any medicine, it is only useful if one makes use of it and follows the prescription for its proper use.

Discernment beyond initial impressions is necessary to determine whether our thoughts and actions will lead to happiness or sorrow. Lust and greed are pleasurable in the beginning but end in pain. Compassion and kindness may be painful in the beginning but end in happiness.
