God has not come to guard your jewels and 'valuables', God has come to guard your virtue and holiness and guide you to the Goal..

Is there any end to the list of
worldly goods that you crave for?
When you secure one, another
starts tantalizing you.

If you do not get that,
very often, your hold on the Lord too loosens.
If something is lost or stolen from you,
you lose faith in God.

God has not come to guard
your jewels and your 'valuables.'
God has come to guard your virtue
and holiness and guide you to the Goal.

If your goodness is in danger,
come to God. God shall tell you how
to cultivate it and reap the fruit.
If some one is snatched away by death
while on pilgrimage to Kashi or Badrinath,
you console yourself that it was an
enviable way of quitting.

But if you get even a mild attack of
headache, you start blaming God.
According to you, those who have entered
this compound once should not die.

If they do, your faith wavers and dwindles.
Well, not even an eyelid can open without the Lord's Will.
So try to get the Lord's Grace and
leave all questions to be answered by Him
according to His Fancy.
