but it will have been a lifetime well spent.
If you want to judge your progress,
ask yourself these questions:
Am I more loving?
Is my judgment sounder?
Do I have more energy?
Can my mind remain calm under provocation?
Am I free from the conditioning of anger, fear, and greed?
Spiritual awareness reveals itself
as eloquently in character development
and selfless action
as in mystical states.
