Leading A Spiritual Life
What is the solution to this problem? Two options
present themselves. The first is to enter a profession
that will last for a lifetime, and in which the careerist
can have job satisfaction. The second option is to start a
new life immediately after retirement – a life of his own
choosing. He should then spend his time on study and
healthy activities, in the course of which he should do
his utmost to realize his full potential.
The Importance of the
Seeking Spirit
One who does not possess the seeking spirit, is spiritually blind:
he is unable to see spiritual things, even if
they exist all around him.
iscovery starts with seeking. If you are a seeker, you
Dare bound to reach your goal. This is a law of nature
and, as such, is immutable. It is impossible for anyone
who is imbued with the questing spirit not to achieve his
goal. Indeed, this is a divine law, which was expressed
thus by Jesus Christ: ‘Ask and you will receive, seek
and you will find, knock and the door will be opened
to you.’ (Matthew 7:7) Conversely, it is impossible for
anyone to make a discovery without being possessed of
a questing spirit.
