The secret of inner success is constancy to our highest character.
When you enter the spiritual life, sometimes you see and feel many undivine qualities suddenly come to the fore. Do not think that weakness and imperfections are coming to the fore in you just because you have accepted the spiritual life. On the contrary, they were there before, but they were hidden. You should be grateful to your spiritual life for bringing your imperfections to the fore. The sooner your imperfections come to the fore, the sooner you will be able to face them and conquer them. So when doubt and other imperfections attack you, you should say, ”You have come. Now let me conquer you once and for all. Then I will be free.”
Be not afraid
Of your teeming imperfections.
Weep not bitterly,
For the divine hero in you
Will soon come to the fore.
Secretul succesului interior consta in constanta intru natura noastra cea mai inalta.
Atunci cand intrati in viata spirituala, uneori vedeti si simtiti ca dintr-odata multe calitati nedivine vin la suprafata. Nu trebuie sa credeti ca slabiciunile si imperfectiunile vin la suprafata in voi datorita faptului ca ati acceptat viata spirituala. Dimpotriva, ele erau acolo si inainte, dar erau ascunse. Ar trebui sa fiti recunoscatori vietii voastre spirituale pentru ca v-a adus imperfectiunile la suprafata. Cu cat mai devreme aceastea vor veni la suprafata, cu atat mai repede veti fi capabili sa le cuceriti. Asa ca atunci cand indoiala si alte imperfectiuni va ataca, ar trebui sa spuneti ”Ati venit. Acum lasati-ma sa va cuceresc odata pentru totdeauna. Apoi voi fi liber.”
Nu-ti fie teama
De imperfectiunile tale multiple.
Nu plange amar,
Caci eroul divin din tine
In curand va veni la suprafata.
Sri Chinmoy
