The Four Paths to God.........

The four main paths to the attainment of union with God are,,,,,(1).The path of "Selfless Work", in which every action is offered to God, as a sacrament...By dedicating the fruits on one's work to God, the spiritual aspirant eventually achieves purity of heart and attains union with God..........(2)The path of " Discrimination between the Eternal and the noneternal "..When by the process of elimination ,all transitory phenomena have been analyzed and then rejected, God only remains, and the spiritual aspirant realizes through meditation , his union with the impersonal aspect of the Godhead............(3) The path of "Devotion " in which the worshiper merges his ego in his Chosen ideal of God by cultivating intense love for him as a personal Being..The majority of believers in all the great religions of the world follow this path............(4)The path of "Formal Meditation " is the method of concentrating the mind one-pointedly on the Supreme Reality until complete absorption is attained..This path may be followed exclusively, often by those who lead predominatly comtemplative lives..
