Aspiring for the Ultimate

Introduction

We all have the innate urge to seek growth and self-actualisation. This impetus for development beyond the possibilities offered by an ordinary education may be expressed in the search for spirituality, first felt as dissatisfaction with life or the wish for lasting peace or happiness. It may be expressed as a quest for meaning in life, or come as the result of pain or loss. The self is the most important part of "self-development." It is we ourselves who determine when and to what extent we wish to devote ourselves to this fundamental necessity of our life. If we choose a suitable system for spiritual evolution, and practice conscientiously, we can make rapid progress.
