Don't differentiate between work and meditation

Sri Bhagavan often said, 'While doing the work, don't have the idea, 'I am doing the work'. If you can keep up this attitude, work will not be a burden, and no problems will touch you.'

Don't differentiate between work and meditation. If you don't differentiate, every job you do becomes meditation. And don't make distinctions between different kinds of work. Don't think, 'This is good work. This is bad work.' If you treat all work equally, any work you do will be your sadhana.'

~ Annamalai Swami, Final Talks

the necessity of serious sadhana

In order that your mind should become firm, observe with full attention you duty, which is the practice of sadhana.

Instead of practicing sadhana superficially, follow it intensively in such a way that your mind is totally immersed in it.

Only the aspiration towards the fair firmament of supreme consciousness, which has no final goal other than mauna, is most worthy endeavour.

Grace will not combine with a bat-like mentality. Stick with intensity to one [path].

~ Padamalai

Enter with love the temple that is your own Heart

Union with me (from Bhagavan's Promises and Declarations)

Seeking my true Nature in your Heart, discovering it and rejoicing
in it by bathing in the bliss of my jnana swarupa -- this is union.

Only bhakti sadhana performed continuously with love will
facilitate easily, in a gradual way, this union.

Enter with love the temple that is your own Heart and experience
the bliss of being absorbed in my swarupa, becoming one with it.

I myself will command and control a mind that has died by the
sacrifice of the ego.
