My dear Bhai and respected Ba,
Soul whose mind has turned away from the worldly activities, has understood the importance of life and whose mind is constantly engaged at thy lotus feet does not wait for anybody and dives into spiritual activities. Not every soul is like that. The soul whose only goal is to unravel, understand and experience the mysteries of life and has intense heartfelt longing for it, will always turn in that direction. Such soul will not be prevented from following spiritual activities by worldly activities, problems, troubles, questions and puzzles.
The souls that do not have that intensity of the purpose but still have the tendency towards the bhava of Bhagawan in their mind cannot leave the activities of worldly life all at once, even if they wish. Such souls have one very important task to see that the inclination of their lives is towards the bhava of Chetan (divine consciousness) even when being involved in the worldly activities. Of course such souls will have all kinds of results of their karmas from the activities of earning money and performing other deeds. Such souls may be involved in the clutches of infatuation and attachments. It is also a certainty that they will have to suffer from the consequences of their actions. At the same time if such souls continue to do the activities towards bhava of Bhagawan will have the sanskar (impressions) of such activities. So it is best for such souls to do whatever activities they can do towards spirituality, even if they cannot do it completely. These activities towards the bhava of Bhagawan will get increased momentum over a period of time and it reaches to the level of being constant. Such souls will definitely gain inner vision at this time.
