Question: Earlier in your talk you mentioned keeping the mind alert. Could you please discuss that further?

Babaji:

Meditation is the blanket remedy. Remember all the instructions in the technique and automatically alertness will occur. Satsang - company with good and noble people is also important. Paying attention to the upadesham, the Guru's teaching, is of course important and you will find bhajan singing and mantra chanting useful to focus the mind also. Remember that you need to practice everyday - just like pots need cleaning everyday. Likewise the mind needs cleaning everyday, then it keeps mind in a good quality.
