Right endeavour is the greatest virtue in the world. Shun self-regarding infatuation. Build up your destiny in the plane of disinterestedness, earning the while your living by honest work. Whatever you do, do with mindfulness and without distractions. Pay as much heed as you can to the realities of the world. The rolling stone gathers no moss. Do your duties attentively,-devoting the rest of your time, as well as you can, to God-recollectedness. Or, (if you have the urge) renounce everything, and with determined and constant endeavour increase your otherness by reciting the Holy Name. Your daily bread will come of itself if you can devote yourself wholly to the service of God. Or, you can join the order of the monks. Deliverance from the world comes of singleminded exertions, pursued in one way or another. Remember God as circumstances permit ; remember Him always. And for discharging your duties to family and society earn your pittance according to your ableness.
