PREFACE
Being born as a human being, one needs to be essentially spiritual, i.e. he needs to be in search of truth. There is no other option for him for his upliftment. If he wants to promote his upliftment, he necessarily has to be a spiritual being. There is no future for people who have no spiritual vision. Without spiritual vision, one's future is very bleak. Spirituality prepares us for meaningful life. It channelizes positive energy in us. Spirituality is a continuous process of discovery of truth. One cannot become spiritual overnight. One cannot think of spirituality without Guru. Guru is indispensible to all spiritual aspirants.
Every one of us has to make spiritual journey sooner or later. It is only a question of time. Life has no meaning without spiritual discipline. Spiritual life is essentially an inner journey. For undertaking the journey, we need a guide.
Spirituality is a science of soul. Spiritualism is not a momentary feeling. It needs rigorous and sincere efforts. A man's own judgment and thinking proves to be of little relevance in spiritual field. Every human being is spiritually unlimited, the fact of which most of us are not aware. Though people by and large are God fearing and loving, only a few take to the spiritual path as it is not so charming and glamourous like the worldly path. There is spiritual sickness of people everywhere. If one does not accept spiritual discipline earlier, the nature will thrust upon him to accept it later. Spirituality can be promoted by conscious efforts.
The spiritual path is full of thorns, doubts and uncertainties. One needs an expert master to remove those thorns, doubts and uncertainties which are on the way and that expert master is none other than the spiritual master (preceptor, Guru). The magic touch of Guru awakens one's latent spirituality.
