Most of the time we stay outside than inside (within) us. So, it is best for the Sadhak to stay within than outside. Sadhak should not get attached to outside struggles, unnecessary arguments, casual talks, outside work and shapes and sizes. Whenever that happens, he should be alert right away and immediately separate himself and turn within. This practice to go within can mature only if we do this several times in a day with awareness. We can learn anything with practice. Sadhana can never flourish and be vigorous without practice. When practice solidifies, there is heartfelt effort and heartfelt cooperation. Practice leads to kind of habit. It is possible that this may lead to rut in practice. For this reason, we must provide kindling for the fire of our Bhavna (our intention to go within) to keep going, by using our intellect, imagination and heartfelt feelings. Whenever there is dryness in the heart, we must rekindle our bhavna immediately. We should try to rekindle our Bhavna in such a manner at least 20 - 25 times in a day.
