Becoming Powerful: Spiritual Practices for Inner Strength
Becoming powerful on the spiritual path is not abstract; it is tangible in its effects on thought, emotion, intellect, and action. Advanced souls carry a higher degree of love, light, and power, and this manifests naturally: sharper foresight, intuitive clarity, intellectual precision, deeper compassion, refined empathy, and steadfast discipline.
“The standard for a person on the spiritual path is high. What cannot be done by ordinary people can be done by you.”

On the contrary, it equips individuals with inner power to face life’s challenges and to produce results.
