Right Time

The house has several rooms. What will a sensible person do at night? He will close the doors of the house. Then he can do whatever he likes without a care and outsiders will not be able to bother him. Likewise, when all senses are closed off, then anger, lust, attachment, greed, etc. cannot disturb us. When our concentration is inwardly directed, we see divine Light. Now, after that, do you think you need to fast, take holy baths, go on pilgrimage, etc.? Won't your attention stay introverted all the time? If we can keep our mind attuned to the True Name 24 hours a day, then at the time of death we'll be able to remember it also and we'll go to God. There's no telling when this body will be vacated or how. You might get struck by lightening, or encounter a lion in the jungle. You might slip and break your neck, or drown, or die in an earthquake. If it is night time, tell me, what religious services, rituals, pilgrimages, or recitations will you be able to do?
