No one succeeds without efforts. Mind control is not one’s birthright.

 (from "Conscious Immortality"):

Question: But the mind slips away from our control?

Bhagavan: Be it so. Do not think of it. When you recollect, bring it back and turn it inward. That is enough. No one succeeds without efforts. Mind control is not one’s birthright. The successful few owe their success to their perseverance.
