“I tell you the truth: there is nothing wrong in your being in the world.
But you must direct your mind toward God;
otherwise you will not succeed.
Do your duty with one hand
and
with the other hold to God.
After the duty is over you will hold to God with both hands”

~Ramakrishna~

And Bhagavad Gita resonates:

बहूनां जन्मनामन्ते ज्ञानवान्मां प्रपद्यते।
वासुदेवः सर्वमिति स महात्मा सुदुर्लभः॥
*
bahūnām janmanāmante jñānavānmām prapadyate
vāsudevah sarvamiti sa mahātmā sudurlabhah

“That great Soul is indeed most rare
who worships me with the knowledge, acquired at the end of many births, that I am the only reality.’’
*
The enlightened sage, who is at last blessed with perception after meditating for many births, undertakes divine adoration with the conviction that God is everything.

Such a sage is the most rare.
He does not worship any external entity,
but
rather feels the presence of God within his own Self.

The basic to know and implement
prior to make any move
for traversing upon
the
“Path of Self Realization”

Humble Wishes!!!
