In my path, three things are really important. One is associating with people who inspire us with their positive influence. The company we keep is very important. Number two is our spiritual practice. Putting aside sacred time every day to make that journey within, to tune into the frequency of our true nature and the love and the grace that is within us. Number three is to try living with ethical, moral and spiritual values, which culminates in unselfish service.

I know people who are both extremely wealthy, people who are middle class and people with little material wealth. Whatever their circumstance may be, they are every bit as renounced as monks because they have that spirit. The spirit of charity on a spiritual platform. The Bhagavad Gita explains that real wisdom is when we see every living being with equal vision. When we love God, we naturally love our neighbor as our self, as the Bible also tells us.

Out of all the opulences of a living entity its humility which pleases Krishna. Other opulences can also please Krishna if offered with humility.

Essence of humility is unity.

Bhakti is expressed through our service attitude.

We should honor Mother Earth with gratitude; otherwise our spirituality may become hypocritical.

Substance of Bhakti is Surrender and Humility.
