In this creation
the brilliantly luminous sun
and the insignificant ant
hold the same importance of existence

All of these have combined
to create the world family

The firmness of a person’s resolve makes one great. However lowly a person may be, one can become great by one’s determination.

If you have a firm resolve to realise your goal, you shall become great. Without a firm resolution, you cannot achieve anything.

The world is a changing phenomenon. Therefore, it is unwise to be attached to any object in the ever-changing world. The very name and form will undergo changes with the change in time and place. The child changes into youth, the youth into the old, and the old into the corpse.

But if wise people take every object of the world as the expression of the one and single Cosmic Consciousness, then on seeing the changes in the name and form of any particular object, they will not be affected by pain or pleasure.

There is one moon, but its reflections, falling in countless puddles of water, appear as countless moons. No new moon is born. The same moon is being reflected in many receptacles. Similarly, the one and the same Supreme Consciousness is being manifested as limitless individual entities, in countless mental receptacles, in countless minds.
