When you practice one, you will get all. And when you will try to do all, then you will get lost in all." A spiritual teacher addresses his disciples, emphasizing unwavering faith and commitment to one chosen path as the foundation for all practice. He warns against the spiritual confusion of seeking multiple masters, using parables like a dog losing its bread by chasing its reflection.

And then, at one point, something happened. They call it resonance."
