'’, say the (revealed ancient sacred scriptures). How can the One have so many names and forms? Well, don't we prepare sweets with various names and shapes, though they all have sugar and taste sweet because of it?

For grass to grow rankly no effort on our part is needed, but if grain is to be harvested, the field must be ploughed, weeded, watered, manured and fenced. So also to get a harvest of virtue, intense (spiritual discipline) is needed, though no such effort is necessary to contract vices. Man has to struggle hard in order to attain the higher Stages of spiritual development. He has to overcome many hurdles and put up with many difficulties and disappointments.
