A life of spiritual practice involves the dedication of all acts to God.

A life of spiritual practice
involves the dedication of all acts to God,
the offering of whatever one does or thinks
or speaks at the Feet of God.

You can do this only when you are
aware always of the Presence of God,
in and around you.

Your awareness must not deviate
for a moment from God.
The mind must revolve round one centre, God.

Your concentration must
be strong and steady.
You are now able to attain
concentration when you walk, talk,
write or cycle along.

But, you say you are helpless
when it is a question of concentrating on God.

Why have you to struggle to acquire it?
The reason is: you have no yearning,
no fond attachment, no Love towards God.

But, carry on with the endeavour.
By means of continuous culture,
it is possible to acquire it.
