God meant us to be practical in this world – He has given us hunger that has to be satisfied – but to go after only food and shelter, money and possessions, is to forget the true Source of happiness. Satisfy your needs, pursue your worthwhile goals in life, but give yourself to God first. Your schooling will then come under His wise and loving tutelage. He knows all your stored – up karma and what is best for you. Don’t resist Him.
Sri Sri Paramahansa Yogananda
