Life often presents us with the same path, but not everyone moves in the same direction. Some surge forward, while others unknowingly fall behind. What causes this difference? Gunatitanand Swami provides a timeless insight: it’s not just about what we do, but how we do it. Spiritual growth doesn’t come from action alone—it comes from the attitude behind the action. Those who humbly seek spiritual knowledge and serve selflessly continue to evolve. In contrast, those who let ego creep in, even while doing good, begin to regress.
Ego is subtle but powerful. The moment we start thinking, “I did this,” or “I deserve that,” we begin to drift from real progress. Genuine growth comes when we let go of the need for recognition and instead focus on service and wisdom. It’s not about being seen—it’s about being sincere. So ask yourself: are your efforts fueled by humility or pride? Because one nourishes your soul and moves you forward, while the other leaves you stuck, no matter how far you think you’ve gone.
