Swamiji wonders why everyone finds it hard and difficult to expand one’s devotional attitude and devotional focus. He says that it is a path of growth, enrichment, expansion and extremely easy and rewarding.

God is inside as well as outside, all-pervading and no outside worship is required to propitiate Him. In this practice, the worship consists of thinking about God, trying to grasp his magnitude and measure which can only be done by the mind. We employ the mind and by the virtue of its own imagination and deliberation it tries to grasp the real nature and magnitude of God. God is something in which the entire world exists, and He is something which is present in all. It is important to think in this manner to expand the mind. It takes away all tensions, all obstructions. It makes one float in the ecstasy of devotion in one’s own mind and intelligence level.
