Spiritual teachings and spiritual company remind us to put one foot in front of the other, one thought in front of the other, until the goal of God consciousness is attained and the radiance of the divine Self shines unimpeded.

Balance is the safest and quickest way to divine realization. Those who attempt to cultivate a virtuous life without the benefit of meditation, or who develop great will but neglect cultivating surrender, or who spend all their time meditating without serving others, discover great difficulties on the path. The devotee who consciously cultivates balance finds steady progress.

We can all think of God this moment. And because life is a series of such moments, when all our moments are filled with God, then all our life is filled with God.

To look past hatred and see love, to look past separation and see unity, to look past loss and see gain-such are the ways of the spiritual warrior. Those who choose to live this way have dedicated themselves not only to bringing the light within themselves, but also to calling it forth in the world.

Spiritual practices, those seemingly small acts we commit to each day, are the threads that tie our life into a meaningful whole. It is no use having a beautiful shell of an outer life if we have not cared for what really matters.

The mystery of love is revealed to us as we live it, as we bear witness to the divine light by letting it shine through our thoughts, words, and actions.
