We need to pass through two kinds of processes. First whatever tools (like meditation, naam-smaran, prayer) we are practicing; there need to be increased intensity of love, interest and sense of purpose in it. We also need to settle firmly in them. Second we need to be more introvert to create the appropriate environment for the effects of the tools to be effective. This is as important as the first one. We will have to observe the games that mind play, understand it with close observation and keep the mind under complete control. At present mind is our leader. We perform the actions guided by the mind and our senses. They are the reason behind it and not us. We have been trained like that. Instead we will have to reverse the flow of water of the River Yamuna. We have become the servants of the habits of the mind and senses. They are so cunning that they do not even let us realize that we have become their slaves. Some realize that but they do not the strength to fight it. We gain that strength from our sadhana. This strength (energy) need to be used constantly to become introvert and increase faith, love , etc. Otherwise this energy gets dissipated like the clouds of the summer and we stay the same as before with empty hands. Not only that mind and senses get better-off us. So we need to use our acquired energy constantly in being introvert.
