Obstacles in spiritual practice
Our spiritual journey can sometimes be fraught with many obstacles. These obstacles can be at a physical level, psychological level or spiritual level, creating impediments in our spiritual growth. For example, ghosts (demons, devils, negative energies, etc.) can cause family problems that throw us off balance and cause us to leave our spiritual practice to attend to the problems. On the other hand, a personality defect of anger erupting over a small incident can undo any peace of mind gained after attending a spiritual discourse. This section examines both the obstacles in spiritual practice and the remedies to overcome them. This way the spiritual energy generated from our spiritual practice will not go to waste and we can make fast spiritual progress in this lifetime itself.
