Truth, being limitless, unconditioned, unapproachable by any path whatsoever, cannot be organised; nor should any organisation be formed to lead or to coerce people along any particular path.
Any path is only a path, and there is no affront to oneself or to others, in dropping it if that is what your heart tells you.
Choose your own way, to suit your own taste, temperament and capacity. There’s no need to criticise or condemn those who follow a different path. Spiritual hunger is the same in all – the ‘food’ to satisfy their hunger may vary.
As men approach Me, so I receive them. All paths, Arjuna, lead to Me.
Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.
The Eightfold Path: Right view, right aim, right speech, right action, right living, right effort, right mindfulness, right contemplation.
Man learns through experience, and the spiritual path is full of different kinds of experiences. He will encounter many difficulties and obstacles, and they are the very experiences he needs to encourage and complete the cleansing process.
We cannot hold a torch to light another’s path without brightening our own first.
