Title: Yogananda inspires me again

The fruits of your actions: most people here probably already know to avoid this, but this passage just kind of struck me,

The Gita by Yogananda, Chap II verse 48:

"Any yogi practicing meditation who is impatient or easily disturbed by the seemingly meager and slow results of meditation is acting with a selfish motive focused on the fruits of his actions.

He should meditate only with the thought of pleasing and loving God; then yoga, or divine union with the immutable Spirit, is sure to follow."

Sure makes it easier for me.

I'm thrilled you posted this, Spiritimage. This is big. Nowhere to go, nothing to do, nothing to achieve. You are that already, be still.
