Every time you don’t follow your inner guidance, you feel a loss of energy, loss of power, a sense of spiritual deadness.

A man’s pride can be his downfall, and he needs to learn when to turn to others for support and guidance.

We should reflect on the idea that since the beginning of time sentient beings have been mentally unstable because they have been slaves of delusion, they lack the eye of wisdom to see the path leading to nirvana and enlightenment, and they lack the necessary guidance of a spiritual teacher. Moment by moment they are indulging in negative actions, which will eventually bring about their downfall.

The most difficult thing I have ever had to do is follow the guidance I prayed for.

I do not believe that a man should be restrained in his daily actions by being afraid of punishment after death or that he should do things only because in this way he will be rewarded after he dies. This does not make sense. The proper guidance during the life of a man should be the weight that he puts upon ethics and the amount of consideration that he has for others.

Inner guidance is heard like soft music in the night by those who have learned to listen.
