Becoming Spiritually Minded
When spiritual growth becomes your primary aim, it helps to become more spiritually minded. Surrounding your self with people of a similar aim (Make sure this isn’t done simply to pacify feelings of being alone. Otherwise, you might find your self in the company of those who profess an interest in spiritual develoment, but really just want to be part of a “club”), letting go of old habits that are not conducive to inner realizations, and reading or listening to the words of clear thinking teachers, keeps the mind intent and heading in the direction of spiritual fulfillment. Maintain these three supports until you are no longer dependant on them, but don’t give them up too soon. A mind conditioned by wisdom is an excellent foundation for the direct experience of Self-realization.
