599 - Swami Chidananda

“Essentially, each seeker should know "What am I aspiring for? Is my aspiration being fouled by the occasional reverse gear—if not frequent reverse gears or a permanent inbuilt reverse gear—or am I totally out of gear?" All the calls of the Gita to Arjuna are to stand up and shake off weakness. "Strive" is what all the scriptures say.”
