The sure indication of spiritual progress is the positive transformation of character. Visions, ecstasies, and philosophical insights that do not make us more compassionate, peaceful, and trustworthy people are just fireworks that fizzle.

Keep the goal of God realization ever in the background of your mind. Let it provide a litmus test for all you seek to do. Will your choice support your goal of spiritual awakening? Choose the way that ever leads toward the light of truth.

People worry: What should I do in life? What is my right work? But the question of who or what I am is the one that ultimately reveals right action. Dharma, or the way of righteousness, is the natural expression of who we are. Know that.

Realizing God as the all powerful, all knowing, everywhere and at all times present Single Reality, the truly faithful do not make petitions. Asking of God is only a bridge. One may use a bridge to reach the farther shore but once across, leaves the bridge behind.

To return to God, realize there is no journey to embark upon and no traveler to set out on the way. Arrive now by letting go of the concept of duality; that is all.

The key to freedom, security, and happiness is forged from the practice of letting go of self-will. Without that key, much of our energy is spent trying to get what we want, or avoid what we don't want. Imagine being free of all that. You are the locksmith.
