And to get to a point where one can actually acquire these habits, one need to develop devotion towards the Almighty. And devotion comes with intense faith and surrender. Faith and surrender can be to a Guru or God/Almighty/Shiva/What ever you want to name God. (As ultimately one recognizes that there is no difference) Sacred Books and company of devoted Sadhaks/Sikh/ are of great help in cultivating these two qualities in a Sadhak. Faith and S[/FONT][FONT=Verdana]urrendering mean "the worship", “the respect for the higher:Guru/God”, “the obedience to the higher”, “not to argue it out”, “not to react”; “acceptance”, “absorption”. And eventually it becomes one-pointed devotion.[/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
