The global recession seems to have affected my willpower too. Feeling very lazy to get up early in the morning on weekdays as well as weekends. Cold weather is also contributing to it – makes it very hard to get up early and go to temple. Past few days i have not been doing anything other than lazing at home during weekends watching TV, eating food etc.
Gurudeva has mentioned the following things about Willpower
It is only when one identifies his willpower as separate and a tool unto itself that he is able to move into the next phase, of discerning the difference between the primal life force within him and what it manifests.
Complete surrender to Sivas will is when the instinct and intellect is quieted.
Therefore, the process is one of breaking up the patterns of instinct and intellect, separating the impulses of them both, through regular and regulated periods of sadhana and meditation, so that the divine will, spiritual energy and infinite awareness can filter in and cause a new intellect to form. Beginning the sadhana, and the continued practice, is the first sign that Siva's will is being done in the aspirant's life. New energy abides within him because of the transmutation from the base to the Divine. New knowledge comes forth from within him as he builds upon it through remembering his accumulated inner experiences as if they occurred but a moment ago.
