Understanding our God-given duties is essential, especially for disciples of Paramhansa Yogananda. General duties relate to our collective mission of uplifting world consciousness, and while we aim to align with the divine, our egos can still influence our actions. Personal duties focus on our individual spiritual journey toward Self-realization through sincere meditation and fulfilling our worldly responsibilities in a dharmic manner. By approaching our family, job, and social commitments without attachment, we can progress toward spiritual freedom. To overcome desires that stem from our ego, deep prayer and meditation are vital; we should ask for divine guidance in our actions. Great masters provide examples of surrendering to God’s will, demonstrating that while it may not always be easy, it leads to true fulfillment. Remembering the importance of intention, we can develop a daily self-offering practice. Let’s prioritize our connection with God and our Gurus to shine as instruments of divine light in these challenging times.
