The basic ingredient of all religions is the same. It is experiencing the existence of God through the realization of divinity in man!

A human being is endowed with enormous powers yet he has lost grip on truth and is now trying to seek pleasures instead of bliss. The great teacher reminds the human beings of their own true conviction and strengthens their faith.

In the process of material progress, one should not lose oneself. The person should not forget the main purpose for which he entered the earth. He must not forget that creator who has bestowed immense powers on him to soar high in the technological and scientific field. One has to climb high in the spiritual summit and march towards God-realization.

All agonies can be easily averted if only the person attributes all his successes to divinity. Fill the heart with gratitude instead of pride; fill it with joy instead of pleasure, for, pleasure leads to pain. Fill the hearts with friendliness instead of with enmity. There is only one God. We are all his children. Concentrate with silence on the magnificence of the creator. Develop love of international brotherhood and establish world peace.

(Bhaktimala Sept 1976)
