Bhagavan stated that self-enquiry should be performed with the same intensity as that of a drowning man struggling for air, only then can it succeed.
In reality, all we need do is simply to rest in the naked, pure awareness of the nature of mind, which is always present.
Every thought that leads you away from self-awareness is a trick created by the imposter (false self).

"The ego controls all thinking."
"The ego creates arguments against the Direct Path as a preservation strategy."

The Reminder Page
Do Your Spiritual Practice Everyday
If you do not do your spiritual practice everyday - eventually, sooner or later, your life will become full of suffering.
If you do not do your spiritual practice everyday - eventually, sooner or later, one or more of the thousands of different types of sorrow and suffering will enter your life.
If you do not do your spiritual practice everyday - you will continue to be caught in the cycle of birth and death, birth again, death again, birth again, death again and in that cycle, eventually, all of the thousands of forms that suffering takes will enter your life.
If you do not do your spiritual practice everyday - you will experience death, diseases, violence, loss of those you love and thousands of other types of suffering, lifetime after lifetime.
If you do your spiritual practice everyday - for the maximum amount of time you can create by dropping unnecessary activities - eventually all forms of suffering will end and you will live in Infinite-Eternal-Being-Awareness-Love-Bliss.
The purpose of spiritual practice is to experience Infinite-Eternal-Being-Awareness-Love-Bliss in this lifetime, not in the afterlife or some future lifetime.
All delays are tricks of the ego.
All detours are tricks of the imposter self.
All distractions are tricks of the false pretend self.
Every thought that leads you away from spiritual practice, is a trick created by the imposter.
So look at your daily activities, and drop all those activities that are not necessary, to create the most time you can create for spiritual practice, and practice everyday.
Taking a shower everyday is necessary. For most people, working to earn a living everyday is necessary.
Entertainment is not necessary.
Make sure that the spiritual practice you are doing IS the most rapid means to:
Infinite-Eternal-Being-Awareness-Love-Bliss
