To become a self-realized person, one needs to take an inventory of his or her past life’s deeds and experiences, lessons learned and the thoughts of what lies ahead. One must think about them at least once a day and write them down. Each time when one is ready to write some more, before adding another chapter one should read what has been already recorded.

The above practice will help the person to achieve lasting peace and harmony within her or himself and in one’s life. One will begin to gradually develop a strong harmonious sense of awareness and will comprehend completely and correctly one’s distinctive divine moral fiber.

The harmonious sense of awareness will connect one to the source of power and energy responsible for universal life and its continuation. Self-realized individuals who have discovered and realized their harmonious sense of awareness and peace are open-minded and optimists. They would gladly make themselves available to help achieve the triumph of good over evil.

A self-realized person would never be pessimistic about achieving what needs to be done in the world around them and in their lives. Self-realized people will be following their profound sense of conviction that, - - evil will only triumph when good people do nothing to stop it. - -
