"Today, man practises meditation and performs japa, but along with them, the animal qualities are also allowed to grow. As long as these qualities remain, the observance of religious practices is worthless. All such spiritual practices amount to practising deception on the Divine itself. Therefore, true Sadhana (spiritual practice) means getting rid of one's animal qualities such as cruelty, wickedness, etc. Two qualities make a man alien to God: Asuya and Ahamkara (envy and egoisom). Envy and Egoism are two pests which destroy the tree of life. They deprive man of his essential human nature. With these bad qualities, people get divorced from the company of the good."
