Einstein said: "Life is like riding a bicycle: You have to be constantly moving to maintain balance."
Spiritual life means harmony between the spiritual and material. We should not simply dismiss the matter or resign. Everything exists for a purpose according to God's plan. So we do have to know how to use things in a positive way for our spiritual advancement and progress.
In the view of spiritual context, we can think that we live in this world with lord (Krishna) as the center, and our life is made to dedicate ourselves in pure devotion. We surrender to Him. But this is not and should not be our goal. We must move to bring the message of Lord to the world, to purify the existence of ignorant people who live around us and are uninterested in spiritual life. And as we move, this can be compared to being on top of a bicycle, we have to go in the balance, because while we have a material body, a subtle mind, we will be splitting energy in all situations of living together and learning, because Lord guides us perfectly, and speaks in every way for the intelligent person that knows how to discern the real from the unreal, the true from the illusory, the useful from the unnecessary.
The material should serve the spiritual and the spiritual must serve Krishna. This is how we serve Krishna within the heart, from love and wisdom necessary to definitely get out of this world of darkness. As soon as we balance and a good bike, with all the gear required, well lubricated, we have a healthy safety to achieve our goal. Lord Krishna is the driver of our vehicle and help to achieve the spiritual goal faster. So let us think about it, how much we are in balance today to follow their spiritual life with comfort and inner peace. Let's keep our efforts constantly moving.
Hari Bol!
