The mind has to be gradually and systematically brought under control. The will has to be strengthened by slow, continuous, and persevering drill.
This is no child's play, no fad to be tried one day and discarded the next.
It is a life's work; and the end to be attained is well worth all that it can cost us to reach it; being nothing less than the realisation of our absolute oneness with the Divine.
Surely, with this end in view, and with the knowledge that we can certainly succeed, no price can be too great to pay.
