To get something you never had, you have to be willing to do something you have never done.

I call that "uping the ante".

It seems like when we first start out on the spiritual path, it is "broad, roomy, all inclusive; never exclusive or forbidding to those who earnestly seek."
(page 46)

After we have been on it for awhile, it gets narrower and steeper. Kind of like the Bible passage that says teachers are held to a higher standard
(James 3:1).
