Every Single Person whould Judge their own Saadhana unaided - Swami

[Guest guest]

However, some of you might question, why. Some have come to Me and asked this very question: "We have been engaged in this Saadhana for years now; we have written the name Lakhs of times, we have repeated it ceaselessly for many years, but we have not succeeded! Why have we not reached the goal?"

 

I want each one of you to search within yourself for the answer; examine your own effort and achievement and judge your own Saadhana, unaided by Me. Have you yearned, have you pined, have you wept for the Lord as Thyaagaraaja did, for example? Have you shed tears of contrition, tears of exultation, while repeating His name so full of sweetness and beauty; while visualising His form so full of loveliness and charm? You might have wept; but who knows for what; who knows the impulse that swept you into that sadness? Were they tears shed out of fear or greed or pride, or because the Lord was not near?.- From Swami's Maha Shivaratri Discourse on 4 March 1962.
