It is easer to run down the mountain that it is to run up the mountain. The top of the mountain is Heaven, the Earth is at the bottom. It is easier to run down the mountain, so in going up the mountain it is best to take one step at a time. Since Enlightenment is not going anywhere, you might as well enjoy yourself along the way.
It is also important to honor yourself. To experience the fullness of honoring yourself, you need to also honor the needs, the space of all other beings. You decided to come into this life, so it is important that you treat others kindly. Think kindly of others, speak kindly with others, act kindly. This will give you greater insight into yourself and all beings.
Note from Chetana
Many times people ask me how to burn their karmas. Of course we burn karmas by meditation, chanting, prayer, and by doing good deeds for others. We also burn karma by financially supporting Spiritual education and development for ourselves, our families, our community. In order to make the most of this lifetime in erasing karma, work on erasing them in ALL of these ways.
