Continually dipping into the physical world is helping me learn and assess my personal desire/pull for going deeper into the spiritual. When is it enough? Not yet. As I experience luxury, creature comforts, and abundance there is still no stronger pull than to deepen into The Divine. As I was coming to terms with this commitment to continue, Gurudev handed me a hard copy version of the Bhagavad-Gita. Close to finishing the Vivekenanda books that I have, I had planned to reread the Bhagavad-Gita next. Should I be surprised by the perfect timing. I have all of these amazing books right now (fiction ones too), but my eyes start blurring after a few hours of reading. A test of patience. Putting the book under my pillow doesn't work either.
More clarification of how nature acts as a spiritual teacher not unlike other religions. Interesting to learn that Yogic practices are not required to deepen either--the principles are the key and not the house they are placed in. Gurudev just keeps taking more and more off the requirement list. Amazing....
