There is no straight path to the top and there are many obstacles. In some places the road is wide but then suddenly narrows. We may come to a bush through which it is very difficult to penetrate, and even though we continue, we do not know where we are going. So it is with the spiritual journey. If somehow you come out of the bush, you come next to a swamp.
Some students disappear in the quicksand and never come out.
Perhaps they see a beautiful girl or a handsome man and get married, and oh, they want to enjoy their life with children, home and family - once again swallowed by Maya, their spiritual purpose completely forgotten. Nevertheless, it is possible to penetrate these obstacles and reach the top. Now you can see all around beautifully. Now you can meditate and enjoy full freedom. These experiences are familiar to the yogi.
