The continual search for pleasure or security, searching for a more comfortable situation at the domestic or spiritual level are some of the things that keep us unhappy.  We will never have it all together, there is only this moment to live.  If you live in the moment, you will find the joy you are seeking.

When faced with a sad situation or events, it is best not to languish in them.  We can change things by some action, by being with different people, moving to other places or, if all else fails, adjusting our own attitudes to take the initiative.  Sadness is transitory like everything else.

Can you let go of dualities and embrace life without skepticism or panic?  Then you will be able to reach the heart of oneness.  Avoid thinking of the Oneness as unusual, exalted, sublime, transcendental; it is beyond all that.  It is simply the direct essential and complete truth.

It is important not to get complacent about success.  Do not skip any stages in your progress,, go slowly step by step as though hesitant.  It is important to remain mindful, conscientious and consistent.  Only such calm steady progress overleaping nothing, leads you to your goals.

Quote: You never fail until you stop trying.   Albert Einstein
