the same goal...

To each person that way is the best which
appears easiest or appeals most.

All the ways
are equally good, as they lead to the same goal,
which is the merging of the ego in the Self.

What the bhakta [devotee] calls surrender, the
man who does vichara calls jnana.

Both are trying
only to take the ego back to the source from which
it sprang and make it merge there.
