Sadhana in the Ashram

Lack of Intensity in Sadhana [1]

I have been thinking again about the general sadhana in the Ashram, how the intenser attitude of sincerity in all would bring an earlier victory. Does such thinking about others bring any difficulty in one’s sadhana? Is it better to stick to one’s own sadhana?

No — it is very good — there are few who have that in any intensity — if there were more, it might hasten things.
