What are the two disciplines that are essential for students and all spiritual aspirants in general? Bhagawan, our Supreme Commander, reminds us again.

In the army, people are assigned different duties. But two things are common to everyone: parade (drill) and use of the gun. Likewise, two things are essential for students: prema (love) and tyaga (sacrifice). Adhere to these two ideals. Love all. Be prepared for any kind of sacrifice. Without the spirit of sacrifice, life has no meaning. For the sake of helping others or for promoting the welfare of society, you must be ready even to give up your lives. To realise God, continually yearn for Him. You must constantly pray for the opportunity to experience God. Ramakrishna Paramahamsa used to feel sad if he did not have the vision of the Mother on any day. Pine for God at all times. When you get God’s grace, all the planets will be in your favour. You must ceaselessly try to win God’s grace. Never give up the search. Do your duty, and God’s grace will follow. Pray from the depth of your heart for the well-being of all people.
