Guru and Discipleship (SRW 1975)

The talk emphasizes the importance of positive affirmation and willpower in spiritual growth, suggesting that identifying as a "child of God" rather than a "sinner" helps one overcome negative habits and failures. It highlights the principle that the greater the willpower, the greater the flow of energy, which can be harnessed through practices like energization exercises to improve both physical and spiritual well-being. Ultimately, Kriyananda encourages using this energy and focused intention not only for personal success but also for uplifting others and deepening one's connection with the divine.To support this work, go to: https://www.ananda.org/support/treasures/
