The secular and the spiritual, yin and yang.

It has already been said that creation is the self involute and the evolutionary turn is as much the work of the same Will-Power as the creative, and we call it spiritual longing. Secular and spiritual are the two opposite directions in which Will of a person can be made flow. The first opens the way for objective research work, whereas the second opens the door for self-realization. One is the negative and the second the positive line of motion.

For reverting the creative energy from its negative course of secular flow one has first to close all outlets in the shape of objective desires, and bring it to a point of desirelessness, and then cultivate a longing for spiritual knowledge. The reader should not that elimination of desires would entail no loss even to him in the sense of worldly gains, as it would increase the potentiality of his will and as such enhance his capability and capacity for action, it would add to his resourcefulness and raise his standard of life, and at the same time would elevate him morally, socially and spiritually. Scriptures ordan, "Thou shall resign thine whole self unto Me, and the door of spirituality shall be opened unto thee.' Philosophy of renunciation decrees utter resignation to the Lord's Will and eliminate all secular desires though not necessarly secular possessions. The divine Will covers all avenues of individual desires fall within the compass of evolutionary course of the dynamic self, and nature works out every detail with the highest degree of competence and perfectness, automatically.
