🍀 For those WHO DESIRE TO ENTER WITHIN - For DISCIPLES 🍀

71. On the occult path many pleasures connected with the outer world are seen to be a waste of time. There may be cases when it is a real effort to part with them, when there is a call from the higher life, and the aspirant responds to that call at a certain amount of cost to the lower nature.
Then he must cast aside the lower in order to have the higher; but later on the attraction of the lower will have disappeared entirely. When a mart once fully realizes the higher, the lower simply ceases to exist for him, but in many cases he has to cast aside the lower before he really enters into the glory and the joy and the beauty of the spiritual life.
72. I have known many whose opportunities were good but who shrank back just at that point, and failed because they were not ready to give up all that they had previously enjoyed, and apparently receive nothing in return for it. Sometimes a man is afraid to let go of one thing until he can grasp the other, and so he holds fast to the lower; but it does not satisfy him, because he has glimpsed the higher.
To give up everything at the Master’s call – one wonders whether one could do it; one always thought and hoped that one would, but when it comes to the point can you do it fully and cheerfully? Many have worked for years and years, and wonder why they do not attain, why they are not among those whom the Master is able to draw very close to Himself. The reason is always the same; it is the personality in some form that keeps them back.
This giving up of everything is not a thing to be done with constant backsliding – giving up one day, and grasping and trying to keep the next – nor is it to be done with pride, with the pose: “I have given up everything.”
That is quite the wrong attitude; it should be done as a matter of course, and cheerfully. The person who is going to succeed will feel that there is nothing else for him to do but to make the great renunciation when the moment comes.
