A Kind Heart

A kind heart is a fountain of gladness, 

making everything in its vicinity freshen into smiles.


- Washington Irving

Q476

When God being omni-present and all-knowing, knows what a Bhakta wants, should the prayers still be sad?



It is your duty to ask God. Words must correspond to thought. The thought must be put into true word. It is true that the Divinity knows all, but He requires that the true word is said. The mother may know that to maintain life, child requires food, but the milk is given when the child asks for it.

(Conversations, pg 47)

Dream Ends

Bring me to the place where dreaming ends
To where suffering can no longer win
Fold my hands, across my breast
Close my eyes, to let them rest
Never again shall a tear leave my eye
Never again shall I see a loved one die
I gave the world my heart, despite the pain
All in the name of God, his love I claim
He stood by my side as I slept through life
He blessed and protected me with all his might
Then, He called my name, and I flew away like a dove
I woke up in my home, in the clouds above
"Welcome home my child," He said," for your life now begins,
Since life is just a dream, and dreaming now ends."

VEDA 28

There is a way of life, a method of uplift, a path of progress, distinct for every seeker, different from those of others. The true Guru knows which suits you best. It does not mean that the Guru is partial or prejudiced; it only means that he is kind and considerate, for he does not insist on all men wearing the same straight jacket.

Diversity And Unity

Man's primary aim should be to recognize the unity that underlies the diversity in the phenomenal world.  To break up what is one into many pieces is easy.  But it is difficult to bring them together into a meaningful unit.  It is in the unifying process that the utility of things can be understood.  The role of both diversity and unity in life has to be properly understood.
