In the process of Spiritual seeking, it is the assiduous application (Shraddha) of the mind that matters.

Man’s worth is when he can apply himself to any task with a sense of perseverance and application. This Shraddha determines our spiritual fate. Shraddha depends on the person’s biological, psychological, spiritual and intellectual constitution itself, says Swamiji.

One’s spiritual progress depends on how much Shraddha one has, on how attuned the mind is, how refined and qualitative it is, how the intelligence acts and responds. The object is the same, but the Shraddha determines our progress. Only our Shraddha can help us generate, preserve and intensify our progress. If one is not able to progress, it is only because of lack of śraddhā.
