After his return from Europe, Mr. D. had a private interview with Sri Bhagavan for a few minutes. He said that his former visit had had some effect but not as much as he wanted. He could concentrate on his work. Is not concentration indispensable for spiritual progress? appealed to him because that helped towards concentration.
Sri Bhagavan: There is no without a (doer). On seeking for the doer he disappears. Where is karma then?
Mr. D. sought practical instruction.
M.: Seek the . That is the practice.
Mrs. D. said there were breaks in her awareness and desired to know how the awareness might be made continuous.
M.: Breaks are due to thoughts. You cannot be aware of breaks unless you think so. It is only a thought. Repeat the old practice, “To whom do thoughts arise?” Keep up the practice until there are no breaks. Practice alone will bring about continuity of awareness.
