We all wait for a time in the future when our mind will be very calm. Do you know this? You have the hope that someday in the future you will never get disturbed. You will become so strong and soild, so peaceful and blissful. When will that be? Someday in the coming future, and you don't know when it is. You wait for it, maybe next month or in two or three years. And you go to astrologers who tell you that in two or three years you will get Brhama Consciousness and will be liberated. Some people are even scared of it. They feel that they should make all the mistakes that they want to right away. Maybe, afterwards they may not be able to. So we have the permission to do whatever we want to do. Anyway, Brhama Consciousness is guaranteed. Or some of you will think that you have done it all these years and have still got nowhere! Suddenly all the calmness in you is disturbed. You are thrown off gear. You wonder what has happened! All the years of sadhana and still you are nowhere! You have not made any progress. You wonder if you will make it in this lifetime? If not, how many lifetimes it will take.
All these self-doubts come. The self-doubt is followed by doubt about techniques; about your path. And when these two doubts come, a third one also follows. You wonder if you are with the right teacher. Doubt about the teacher follows the first two. And these three doubts drown you. It doesn't matter where you are. You'll be drowned wherever you are. These are the things which make a hole in the boat and it doesn't matter which boat you are in. Whichever boat you are in, once a hole is made, water comes through it and you are drowned, for sure! Krishna says, 'Sanshaytma vinnashyati. Neither this nor that, for one who is steeped in doubts, is going to perish. The boat is going to sink.'
