Q. Do I have to go to a group? Can I do this work alone?
A. We do not need a group. We can do this work at home, alone. However, the support of like-minded people is often very helpful on the spiritual path. In spiritual life, it is important to find people who have similar ideas, aspirations, and practices. The spiritual path is difficult. There are barriers, tests, trials, and temptations that lead us off the path.
For support and encouragement, we need a network of people who love, care, understand and forgive. When we see spiritual qualities such as strength, courage, and humor manifested in others, we gain the necessary guidance and inspiration to keep going, no matter what form resistance may take.
