Thereupon Muktãnand Swãmi asked, "The scriptures have described innumerable spiritual endeavours to please God; but amongst them all, which one is so powerful that it alone earns as much pleasure of God as is earned by performing all spiritual endeavours combined? Please reveal it to us."
Shriji Mahãrãj began by saying, "Please listen as I tell you the one spiritual endeavour by which God can be pleased." He then continued, "Accepting the firm refuge of God is the single, greatest endeavour amongst all spiritual endeavours for pleasing God. That refuge, though, must be extremely firm and without any flaws."
