Time waits for no one. Concentrate all your efforts on the realization of God. The primary requisite is the elimination of the ego. Without getting rid of the ego, the bliss of Divinity cannot be experienced. Ostentatious worship is of no use. Wealth, power and position are of no avail in the spiritual quest. They cannot confer peace or remove the fear that haunts man all the time. Only the man of faith is completely free from fear. Hence, develop faith in God and lead a God-directed life... What is happening now is that men are forgetting God in the pursuit of wealth. They are seeking annam (food) instead of Atma (Self). When the Atma is realized all other things will be got without any great effort.
- Divine Discourse, December 25, 1987.
