Failure
All who cleave to the path steadfastly can be sure of their spiritual destiny. If one fails to reach it, it can only be for one of the two reasons, either because they leave the path or because for some lure of ambition, vanity, desire etc. they go astray from the sincere dependence on the Divine. [1]
“His failure is not failure whom God leads” [Savitri, Book III, Canto 4.]
It is the human mind that has the conception of success and failure. It is the human mind that wants one thing and does not want another. In the divine plan each thing has its place and its importance. So it is not success that matters. What matters is to be a docile and if possible a conscious instrument of the Divine Will. [2]
