Undoubtedly, spiritual development is pounding away at your consciousness, or you would not be reading this book. Something of a spiritual nature is trying to break through and will not let you rest until you have attained your goal, so even if you have to sacrifice some material good at this moment in order to achieve that spiritual unfoldment, do not shrink from these sacrifices. Rather, be prepared for them because you may have to sacrifice much to attain this spiritual development, but it will be well worth every sacrifice, for when you have achieved even a measure of it you will find that you have everything else you need in the world.
