Dedication and Spirituality

Dear Balarishi,Can you elaborate on the role of dedication in Spirituality? 

Dedication  is  something beyond  expectation .

When you choose to dedicate yourself to something which you  love ; whether you win or loose,whether u progress or slowly progress .. you would have a joy just by being in that path .

So many people love to reach a goal and that's something they long for .They would have put their passion, they  would have  worked hard.Once they reach the goal it would make them to think what next.Now this denotes that the passion for a goal is changeable .But dedication is something which remains the same .You don't just love the goal. In fact u don't even bother about a goal

Whether you reach or not , you just dedicate yourself in to that process ..

Expectation s a binding.It has its own limitation.Desires also keep changing.

A seeker should take up  spiritual life with  dedication and not with expectation! So when your expectation is binding you,there is a possibility for you

to develop hatred in the  path which you have chosen. Many work hard on their ego to attain spiritual goals.Dedication is equally important.

Some people make lots and lots of research in their the spiritual journey before getting in to the path as a seeker ! That is completely right and healthy

You Can judge something before entering in to it ! But After Entering at times when your ego is not comfortable to adapt , to be questioned , or to be treated ,there  the problem arises! It is there where you confuse yourself !Here your clarity tells you something and your doubts tells you something else and you tend to take more guidance from your confusion ..

 You might have had an intense search for a Guru and divinity !

You would have had real  thirst and once you really find a way,you are not able to enjoy as your longtime habits and attitudes  start troubling !

This can really be worked by a clear discussion with a guru's  guidance but it would take time to gel between your intellectual understanding and your experience !But the easiest best way is to love your journey with pure dedication!

This will also help you to cross your hidden blocks ! 

Once u know your spiritual journey,. stay there and move forward .

Dedicate yourself in to  it ! You will then know what kind of joy and clarity it can bring to you !

Happy new year !

LOVE
