| Popis: | Some, if we believe what they tell us, are born with God-consciousness. Some struggle to achieve it by strenuous spiritual practice, though by all accounts the success rate isn't (and never has been) encouraging. I had God-consciousness thrust upon me in 1983, my 60th year, without working for it, desiring it, or even believing in it, and this has understandably given me a somewhat unusual perspective on the whole matter. In particular, I wonder if discipline isn't altogether counter-productive in this context and the idea of spiritual growth totally mistaken. |
