Which path are these ratings talking about? Do you agree ?

1. Difficulty Rating ****All these things take a lot of self-control, patience, faith and determination. It could take weeks,

months, years to acquire. This path isn’t for everyone !2. Difficulty Rating **The sky is the limit ! No-one said “enough” to loving. But love can be shown in small and ordinary

ways, so this path is for everybody. You could get discouraged, so it does take some determination, especially if other ways of spending your time start looking more important!

3. Difficulty Rating *****Taking control of your mind is a difficult thing. It means hours sitting in meditation, and then living

a pure life. However, the rewards are great. If you like to know what is going on in your own mind, then this might be for you.

4. Difficulty Rating **This way is for people who are not good at meditating, learning or thinking deeply and who don’t

have too much time to spend in prayer. No action is too small or too big to count. Every day you will find many opportunities to practice this path. You have to keep at it and doing a good action might mean going out of your way.
