Lack of Intensity in Sadhana [5]

If the Force cannot bring definite and lasting fruit without our individual endeavour, don’t you think at least half the sadhaks here will remain in the mud for long if not for ever? Half of them don’t seem to want to make any steady personal effort. They depend on the action of your Force alone.

That is why the Asram is what it is. Only those who are taking the Yoga seriously are making any progress.
