“Continue remembering the Master as you are doing now. Try to keep yourself busy woshipping him, repeating his name, meditating on him, reading books about him, and so on. He will surely be gracious enough to grant you peace of mind. Pray to him like a child, and pray with greater fervor, asking for love, devotion, and faith. If you pray with great yearning, he will surely respond…With this belief in your mind, worship the Master, repeat his name, and meditate on him. Continue with this and you will get peace of mind”
