Sadhak needs to keep living awareness that while performing every work, he should not be completely guided by his nature. This means he should not be a slave of his own nature. Otherwise he will never achieve his goal of life. It is possible that Sadhak in the initial stages may not be able to keep control over outburst of his nature (for example getting angry) but if he is at least aware of it, then next time when similar situation arise, he will be able to control the outburst. Sadhak who is even not aware of it, will never progress in life. It is not proper for the Sadhak to be aware of the outburst after it happens. Sadhak must be aware at the time of the outburst.
We need to give great importance to this. When someone realizes after the fact, it is like being aware, after behaving badly under the effect of alcoholic intoxication. We may face similar situation. It may be proper if someone has deep and powerful regrets after the incident but for the Sadhak of life, it is not proper to be aware after the fact (being not aware at the time of the outburst of his nature). Such Sadhak of life must develop increasing awareness, then only we can say that there is understanding behind his actions; this means Sadhak who was aware of the outburst of his nature after the energy of the outburst was used up, now he is aware of the outburst before or at the time of the outburst.
