No spiritual study or sadhana can help to purify one's heart, unless one makes the effort himself. And when the heart is purified, it becomes a worthy abode for the Divine. Whatever you do, you must regard it as a duty done without any motive of self-interest or selfish gain. It is only when all actions are done as offerings to the Divine, will they become sanctified and liberating. Through Icchaa shakthi karmas (desire filled actions) we take birth, through anaasakthi karmas (desireless actions) we can attain freedom from re-birth.
