#Effort & #Understanding

There is no meaningful effort without an understanding
There is no understanding without a #meaningful effort
We #achieve meaningful effort only by #failing and #trying again

#Effort teaches you to be #practical

#Understanding will bring #trust and #patience

#Understanding is needed to examine WHY and WHAT

#Effort is needed to achieve WHAT by doing HOW in accordance with WHY

#Focusing only on #effort leads to rituals as mind enjoys #choosing and making single sided #decisions

It will make you a #machine which has only a fixed #purpose
The #goal is almost forgotten and The #Path becomes everything

Focusing only on #knowledge of #understanding lead towards #hallucination and #laziness as mind enjoys the #imagination, you will become a #scholar

You will excel in #debate, #logic, #philosophy but not in #life
The #Path is almost forgotten, The #Goal becomes the only #desire

Most of the times, the time spent in doing #effort and gaining #understanding are not equal
You might have to take many #meaningful steps before you arrive at a certain understanding
You must not do an extra effort outside your understanding unless needed
Don't #identify yourself

The more directed #effort you make towards your optimum subjective #path to #realisation less time spent in #failure
If someone who already walked the path is available, Always #seek an #understanding
But never directly adopt the understanding, seek the #method to arrive at it

#Effort and #Understanding must embrace each other to #achieve the #realisation, the ultimate understanding.
After realisation, the #action is needed but becomes effortless

#Mind is the biggest #barrier to #Understanding

Mind can only exist in #extremes, never in the middle. Never appreciates #neutrality

Mind prefer #consistency but the #reality is a #spontaneous phenomenon

Mind always cling to the #known and discards the #unknown

#Mind always want to choose that is why it divides everything to create #duality

Mind immediately provides you, another better, refined duality if you want to get rid of one duality

Mind creates I & You, #Masculine & #Feminine, #Good & #Bad, #Love & #Hate, #Birth & #Death
