As the beautiful narration of Yoga Vasistha continues, Ma gives us an insight into the qualities of a True Disciple. Why do we find ourselves not progressing in our Sadhana? Ma fondly tells us – just an acquiring of knowledge will not suffice, rather the cultivation of Sadhana Chatushtayam (four-fold virtues) alone will bring about a transformation in us. Being in a loving association of a Mahatma and following his instructions with great faith and humility, marks the beginning of the real sadhana for a seeker of Truth.
Having started on this path, we already have these four-fold virtues in some measure. The call is to develop them further under the guidance of a Self-Realized Knower – to overcome all our inhibitions and walk on a path of expansion. This alone will take our seeking to its intended fulfillment.
