Someone said “I have been following your teachings for quite many years, my life has
not improved”.
This is not a new question.
I have had many people ask this question before; the truth of the matter is nobody follows
nobody.
Yes, I have given you some teachings; some tools like the mantras etc.
How much energy did anyone put into that?
And how much commitment that one brought into living that advice that I have given or anyone
has given, the truth of the matter is that nobody listens to nobody.
So the problem is not with the teachings or with the tools, the problem is oneself.
If you want anything so bad in your life, you will bring the commitment and the plan
of action and do it but what happens is that most people are wish-washy.
They waste more time than use it for any purpose.
It is really the curse of humanity that the less successful you are, the more wish-washy
one becomes.
You have to be very very commited to whatever you are doing for you to succeed.
About 10 years ago, somebody in Los Angeles put this question to me: “I have been practicing
your meditation with the mantra Ara Kara to manifest some money.
I haven’t been able to do that although it has been quite a long time” and I said
“if something doesn’t work, don’t do it”.
So if people come and complain that I have been working with it for years and nothing
is happening, that’s your mistake.
Why continue using something that has not produced any results.
I would not personally pursue anything that is not producing any results.
I am not claiming that this is going to work; no matter whether you are committed or not
but what I know from my personal experience and also some other who have followed me diligently.
If there is commitment to the teaching and also to yourself and when you become conscious
about how you spend time.
This is a very, very important point, most people are not conscious of how they spend
their time.
Then you will be successful.
