If our goal of life was spiritual, we must never leave our quest for truth midway. We had only a limited time span of 70 to 80 years of present earthly abode. Whatever we need to do, we have to accomplish within this timeframe. We do not know what form our soul atman manifests in next life after death of present body. When about nine years of age something within prompted me to end this endless circle of life and death. At that time I could not know what was prompting me. One day finally I decided to go in search of God wholeheartedly in this very life and also reach cosmic end of life, 8.4 millionth manifestation! My firming up my goal at that young age had a great effect on my future spiritual journey.
During my spiritual pursuit I minutely observed most human beings leaving spiritual path midway. Quibbling was most common. Everyone wanted a shortcut, the results immediately… never wanting to realize that we must never go after fruits of karma performed. Our concentration all the time should be on the path, never the end result. Indulging in contemplation one never knew when the results would be available. Journey of spirituality was always a one-way quest. We have to keep trying all the time.
When a racehorse participates in a competition, it never looks back. It just keeps trying its best, irrespective of the results. Spiritual journey always was like a racehorse.
