i wrote a similar thread recently but do not think I explained myself properly.
Swami Vivekananda states "Take up one idea. Make that one idea your life - think of it, dream it, live on that idea. Let the brain, every muscle, nerve and every part of your body be full of that idea, and just leave every other idea alone. This is the way to success"
Here is my dilemma. I want to become single minded in my pursuit of God. Im fed up of trying different religions, faiths and philosophies. I feel have a lot of info, but im spreading myself to thinly and am like a reed blowing in the wind without anchor. I want to grasp one idea, hold on to it and make it my life goal. I no longer want to be searching. I realise the mind will never be satisfied but I want to ground myself in a belief system to feel connection. Can anyone help or shed light on how they become single minded in one train of thought?
