The Master came back to the drawing-room

and said: "The worldly minded practise devotions, japa, and

austerity only by fits and starts. But those who know nothing else

but God repeat His name with every breath. Some always repeat

mentally, 'Om Rma'. Even the followers of the path of knowledge repeat, 'Soham', 'I am He'. There are others whose tongues are

always moving, repeating the name of God. One should remember

and think of God constantly."
