आधयात्मिक मार्ग का निर्णय कैसे हो?_Which Is The Best way to God‪?‬ 'Hari ki baat' With Vinod Ji Agarwal

    • Spirituality

All the ways to God are equally significant but a seeker has to choose one as per his personal preference. Recognizing the fact that we all have different kinds of nature, spirituality offers us multiple options to initiate our spiritual journey. Intellectual people may opt for Gyaan maarg (knowledge based), industrious temperament finds its fit in Karm maarg (action oriented) while our emotional tendency takes us through Bhakti maarg (devotion). If we are clear about the purpose of our life and fully prepared to strive hard for it, the appropriate path would surely make us succeed. 'Appropriate' is a relative term and spirituality is liberal enough to let us begin by any path chosen on the basis of our self analysis. However once begun, we must not stop or divert just like we travel straight by only one route for arriving at a geographical location. Moreover, as we are aiming towards Supreme bliss, we ought to start feeling delighted, though partially, at our first step itself. So this can be taken as a criterion to confirm our voyaging by correct route because if we do not find our spiritual activities delightful, it signifies some sort of lack on our part. In that case, we need to re-evaluate ourselves or sincerely seek guidance from our mentor as cure may not be effective without adhering to the proper regimen. Most importantly, our objective is to arrive at a destination and entry at the arrival point requires leaving the path even. Hence their is no contradiction about the ways to God as each certainly leads to Divine bliss. Time taken to cover the distance upto Him ofcourse depends upon our speed, which in turn, is a derivative of our zeal to reach.
