Alertness is a key quality that a devotee should cultivate. To attach oneself to the flimsy, paltry, foolishness of the world and to run after them and worry when they slip out of the hands or jump in glee when you get them, is avidya (Ignorance). On the other hand, if you are awaiting a chance to commune with the Divine, keeping awake for the opportunity of hearing the words of the Lord, imbibing their essence, that is called Vidyamaya (Internal Illusion). If a devotee gets this, they are fortunate. Develop this quality of alertness and dwell on the thoughts of God. Do not give it up or reduce for any reason to any extent. The thoughts will illuminate you and you will become holy without fail and attain the goal.
- Sandeha Nivarini.
