What should we do to bring out the Divinity lalent in us?
Man is called so because he has the skill to do inner meditation on the meaning and significance of what one has heard.
But you have not yet emerged out of the stage of listening!
All the joy you crave for, is in you. But like a man who has vast riches in the iron chest, yet who has no idea where the key is, you suffer.
Hear properly the instructions, dwell upon them in the silence of meditation, practise what has been made clear therein; then, you can secure the key, open the chest and be rich in joy.
All have Love in them, in some form or other, towards some one or other or towards their work or goal.
That Love is divine, a spark of Him in them. They have Ananda (bliss), however small or temporary. That is another spark of the Divine.
They have inner peace, detachment, discrimination, sympathy, and the spirit of service. These are Divine in the mirror of their minds.
- Divine Discourse, Shivaratri Day, 1969.
Even those who deny Him, will tread the pilgrim road, melting their hearts out in tears of travail.
