Realizing God, lack of time

Question: Two years back, by Lord’s grace, I got a chance to read Swami Vivekananda’s life and his Chicago speech. Since then I have been deeply interested in spirituality. But what is preventing my spiritual growth is what is know as “time sickness”. I always feel that I am at a lack of time. I can do everything in time and I also have lots of free time. But still I feel a serious lack of time, despite of my having no pending work. This keeps me always in a sense of anxiety. I used to feel that I should realise God in this very life itself but now this feeling also seems to be due to “time sickness”. I sincerely seek your help in this regard. I am a 22 year old male and am presently doing engineering in Chennai.

Answer: Since you are a student, give your utmost attention to studies. Rest of the time try to study more and more of Swami Vivekananda’s Works. Reading Swami Vivekananda itself will put you on the right track.
