The All Important Spiritual Need

Why we have come out in the street? Is it for our bread and butter, and clothing and shelter? The answer is "No". Our need is far more extensive and deeper than these basic needs for subsistence. Then what is that most important need? That is our need to know ourselves, and thereby to get ourselves. Until and unless we know and get ourselves, we will never be able to unify ourselves with the Universal One (The Divine Soul of God). That is why we are constantly striving to transform ourselves into a purified, magnanimous, perfect and complete form.

Through the teachings of the master, one has to know himself first. Once a person knows himself, he can feel the presence of God within his heart. That is the essence of the religion of humanity. At some time or other, everybody will have to give his/her best efforts to know himself/herself, and thereby subscribe to the cause of the religion of humanity. The root of this dictum is there within the eternal truth that is embedded within the heart of every human being. This only can help us to move from death to eternity.

Thus every person is moving towards a direction of completeness. He is revolving around a point with which he has an inseparable connection, from where he is constantly deriving the juice of life.

Right from childhood we keep on trying, almost unknowingly, to educate our nature and to refine, reform and restrain our behaviour. Around each of our bigger aims and objectives we keep on building up smaller practices and try to regularize them. Incorporation of such special practices in our lives clearly show our comprehension that life is not just pushing through the days and performing all our social and economic practices in a religious manner. We constantly want to see us in a transformed state, which ought to be of the highest degree, which surpasses the present time, its surroundings and circumstances, our nature and all our aspirations.
