3.The fruits of all of our actions donot go to God but return to us;
even our prayer, concentration,meditation, sacrifices are so.
,through which we ascend or
descend, according to the actions
we do.

Eternally there are two ways of doingactions: material and spiritual. The
material man thinks of the action anddoes it; the spiritual man thinks of theSelf and does the action. The first way
eeps man n on age y o ng min ignorance; the second way frees himfrom bondage by dispelling ignorance.

heart.

When the will performs actions,the will is called cause; when theaction has been performed, the
action is called effect. So, for
every act on or e ect t ere s acause, and for every cause or
will there is an effect

Will is the infinite thought-planof the Self because all the things
which we see evolving in thiscreation and all others emanate
- . When the thought-plan is put
into execution, it is action.

We are all moving according to the will. Just as puppets are moved by
the puppeteer or a sickle is moved by a grass-cutter, so are we allmoving, acting, standing, running,
crying, laughing, dancing,swimming and doing all actions by the motive will-power of the Self.

We see actions we do but wedo not see the will driving us
to action; so the will is hiddenand the actions are apparent.
The Lord, who is Will and Action, is likewise hidden and
apparent.

Nature has voices everywhere. He who follows the will of the
Supreme can understand throughthe fair or unfair voices of nature
not, whether a matter may begood or bad, harmful or harmless,
easy or difficult…

There are two main ways of knowing about the creation:
through action and throughintuition. Through action, one
everything, and throughintuition, one knows that He is
everything.

Even when one is busy doingactions, one may receive
intuition from the Self throughIts power of pouring
knowledge into the seeker.Even while sleeping,
knowledge may be obtained.
