My spiritual teacher used to say, I want to teach you to turn to the Creator rather than to me, because He is the only strength, the only source of all that exists, the only One who can really help you, and who awaits your prayers for help. The help in the search for a way to become freed from the cage of this world, the help in elevating oneself above this world, the help in finding the self, and the help in determining one’s purpose in life can only come from the Creator, who sends you all of these aspirations in order to compel you to turn to Him.
