50 Compunction

Madal: Chinmoy, please tell me frankly, if your heart is full of compunction after doing something wrong, will this emotion illumine you? Chinmoy: No, Madal, it will not. Even if you are full of remorse, you cannot expect illumination. For illumination you need a prayerful life and a soulful heart.
