Spirituality is not a utopian ideal
but a practical philosophy
which can be practiced and realised
in every day life.

A prayer to the supreme consciousness…

Do whatever you think fit and best for me.
I do not know in which way lies my good.
You know.

That which makes the mind soft and strong and strenuous, so it may keep itself in a balanced state even in the condition of pain – that which perpetually creates a pleasant feeling within, is called love.

Devotion is identical with love. The moment devotion is aroused, the love of the Supreme Consciousness comes.

Devotion is that bridge which connects the individual with the Cosmic Consciousness.
Before crossing the bridge of devotion, one feels, “You are that Supreme Consciousness”.
But while crossing the bridge, one feels, “I am That”.

Devotion means longing for the Supreme. Now the question arises, is devotion natural or unnatural for living beings?

All the conscious or crude things we see in the manifested universe bear attraction for one another, and as a consequence, the continuity of the thought-projection of the Cosmic Mind is maintained. It is on account of the mutual attraction of myriads of heavenly bodies oscillating in the infinite space that balance is maintained in the firmament.

The sweetest part of the Infinite’s play is that He is hidden in everyone and everyone is searching for Him.

From ancient times learned people have been accepting that the wisest person in the world is the devotee. The devotee is not bereft of intellect. On the contrary, s/he is the wisest.

If you want to remain in the world, remain like a devotee. As long as devotion is absent, one’s heart is like a desert; and when devotion is attained, an oasis appears in the desert.

Now what is devotion? Leaving all the relative things, when the mind moves toward the Absolute, that alone is known as Devotion. When the mind moves toward the Supreme Soul, the nearer it comes to Him, there is an unknowing change in it. The caterpillar does not know when it becomes a butterfly.

The mind does not know how changes occur in it. Thus, one day it sees that it is no longer an individual being and hence the individualistic feeling disappears. When the mind is free from individualistic feelings, that alone is the Supreme State.

That which makes the mind soft and strong and strenuous, so it may keep itself in a balanced state even in the condition of pain – that which perpetually creates a pleasant feeling within, is called love.

Devotion is identical with love. The moment devotion is aroused, the love of the Supreme comes.
