WHERE THERE IS ENDEAVOUR THERE IS ATTAINMENT:
A certain barrister came to have a darshan of Shri Ramakrishna Paramahamsa at Belur math. He was greatly delighted to have met Shri Ramakrishna Paramahamsa. The Swamiji had some agitation in his mind. He was worried. He was suffering from some ailment. The barrister said to him, "I will get you treated by the best doctors if you agree to it". The Swamiji was silent.

Again he said, "What is the use of your yoga? You can cure yourself by your yoga. An ailment can be cured even by the blessings of a noble man. And you possess extraordinary yogic powers, Why do not you cure yourself by means of your yogic powers ?''
The Swami smiled and said, "Do you think that I am an ignorant man? How foolishly you are talking ! Who would pour ghee into ashes ? Shall I waste my yogic powers to cure my physical ailment ? I have carried out my spiritual endeavours for the sake of my eternal soul; not for the sake of this body".
"The aim of the inner soul is to attain perfection. Whatever I have been doing, I have been doing it for my soul; not for the body or my worldly life. I have been carrying out my spiritual endeavours for my soul. is for discarding attachments".
