Guest guest Posted August 25, 2009 Report Share Posted August 25, 2009 The ideal of a high standard of life, instead of a high standard of living, has played havoc within society. A high level of living insists on morality, humility, detachment, compassion; so the competitive greed for luxury and conspicuous consumption receives no encouragement and will be destroyed. Now, people are slaves of their desires, and find themselves unable to conquer their thirst for pleasure and luxury. They have become too weak to keep their nature under control, and do not know how to arouse the divine Consciousness that is latent within them. Spiritual discipline is the only way to effect this basic transformation. It involves the elimination of the mind which is the obstacle on the path. The grace of God, if invoked and won, can endow you with the necessary power. And that God is available to you, awaiting your call. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
