One’s inner attitude determines the way of spiritual life, so the path of genuine evolution opens from within outwards rather than outside in. An inner initiation spontaneously happens with the growth of inner preparation and opening. It could come like a Mantra, or a sentence or an experience. The whole of our life gets its true meaning from this awakening. The whole orientation of our life turns towards the Divine after this initiation. At the time of hardship and difficulties and challenges, the sadhak automatically rises up to the vibration of mantra and the protection of the Divine Presence. Then the journey of yoga takes a new turn and gets a gradual enrichment.
