How to Get Answers to My Questions?

Live the divine life, wherever you are. You need not give up your position in life, your business, your family, or your possessions. A slight change in your outlook is all that is required. Simply abandon the attitude ‘I, Mr. Jones, desire or plan to execute’, which will naturally fortify in you the feeling of ‘I-ness’. Have a spirit of dedication to the Lord and roam happily through life in the safe and true belief that ‘He is the Truth. His will alone be done. May I be ever an instrument in His hands, and through this body, may His plans be fulfilled.’ When a person effects total elimination of his egocentric dross, he becomes a God upon earth. His is all love, all success, all joy. His is wisdom absolute. The questions that confronted him as he gradually grew away from worldly passions trouble him no more.While still seeking, he hesitated in doubt and asked, ‘What is life?’ Now he knows that existence as ‘I’ is a long eternity of pain, and that true life can be only an eternal experiencing of the Life Divine, when the frail mortal breaks his fetters to rise as a God-man. ‘Why was I born?’ was another question that haunted him before the final moment of Liberation. Now he knows the answer: ‘I was born only to wake up and assert my true nature, which is wisdom and bliss’.Along with his growing sense of dissatisfaction, even with the best that worldly life can give, the aspirant, in his earlier stages, finds himself asking, ‘What is the aim of life? Is there not perfection to be achieved? Is life a mere interval of sighs and smiles between birth and death?’ Today in his wisdom, he has the clue to the riddle. He declares: ‘Life is to seek and to discover Truth! Truth is perfection. As long as perfection is not realised as one’s own Self, the man-worm lives in a dung heap. When the divine, eternal principle of Self is realised, out of the worm, springs the Lord of lords, the ruler of bliss – God!’A liberated person lies dormant in every mortal. As butter is in milk, God is in you. Soured milk is curd; churn the curd, and you have butter. When the external life of sense objects has lost its charm, the ‘curd’ is ready for churning. Divine life churns your life of imperfections and brings up for you the butter, the essence – Truth.Live the divine life and enter the Life Divine, where you will have perfect joy and eternal satisfaction. Live the worldly life and know snatches of joy, fleeting glimpses of satisfaction, and countless hours of suffering. This is the choice. May your choice be eternal happiness.
