Religions are many, but goal is one...

"Religions are many, but goal is one,
Jewels are many, but gold is one,
Stars are many, but sky is one,
Cows are many, but milk is one,
Nations are many, but earth is one.
Flowers are many, but worship is one."

Never call yourself a 'Sinner' born in sin, bred in sin and engaged in sin.

God some times act as if
He keeps you at a distance;
that is done to reform you quicker.

When a stretch of road is being repaired,
He goes by another detour and
He does not use that bit of road for some time.

The purpose is to let the repair works
proceed more quickly, so that He may use the road again.

Never call yourself a 'Sinner' born in sin,
bred in sin and engaged in sin.

In every one of you,
God is the moving spirit,
the very soul; how then can you be evil,
when you are here for fulfilling God's purpose,
according to His Will, His plan, His law?

He has endowed you with many faculties
so that you may seek Him and reach Him.
You are not therefore a helpless, neglected
individual undergoing a sentence of death.

Devotees shines as the fire of wisdom...

From time to time, the Divine power
assumes numerous forms.
In devotees, it shines as the fire of wisdom.

In non-devotees, it burns as the fire of anger
or the fire of desire. Man today has this fire of anger and lust
in his heart and has become a victim of fear and delusions.

All other types of fire subside in due course of time,
but these fires (of anger, etc.) never completely cease.
They may flare up at any moment.

How, then, are these fires to be
extinguished once for all?
Detachment and love are the two requisites to extinguish
these fires. It is only through love that man can acquire peace.
