Even one experience of Samadhi, or divine communion, nurtures us many times—first by being immersed in the bliss of God consciousness, then as memory. During times of seeming separation we can remember the sweetness of inner communion and be sustained.

Every day serve with love; give God your all.
Every night release it completely; turn it over to God.
Each day is new; begin anew.
Do not worry; it is all God.

A student, or spiritual seeker, is one who embarks on the path. A disciple is one who follows the path with steadfastness, faith, and devotion, ever intent on Self-realization.

We should ask ourselves what we are seeking in our work. Do we work for security, prosperity, or happiness? All these conditions must first be found in their essential nature in the soul as being, conscious awareness, and bliss. When we have found them within, then we can work without attachment.

Will can be a useful tool on the spiritual path when it is guided by soul-inspired wisdom. First we use it to follow the inspired guidance of enlightened teachings and learn how to conform it to divine will.

Every day the spiritual life presents a question: On what will you rely for happiness and security? We can choose the world with the material or emotional supports it promises or we can choose Divine Consciousness, the invisible infinite support. Many reach for what appears to be the sure thing of the world only to discover it is ultimately unreliable.
