These days, people of all religions and sects have this thought process in common: "God is with me because my heart and intentions are pure. Yes, my head is messy but my heart is pure. Yes, I did this and that but my intentions were not wrong." If everybody is so pure and pious, why is there so much pain and misery in this world?

Wounds only attract flies. Pain attracts more dark and negative energies. But deep inside you, the sun of humility rises. Dwell there as long as you can.Because that’s where prayer happens. That’s where the divine energies come and bring about a miraculous healing.

There is chaos all around and you are looking for oneness and unity. Most of you're sticking with a unit called body which hardly lasts 100 years, or to units such as family, cast, religion, country or humanity. Humanity is the largest of them which lasts a few thousand years. That is nothing compared to the eternal oneness, the unit that lasts forever. Find that!

One morning, 3 priests opened doors of temple and found red rose petals near the deity. First priest said, “Ah miracle! The Lord cried tears of bliss last night.” Second said, “Ah wonder! The Lord has blessed us.”The oldest of them casually picked up the petals, threw them in dustbin and started the day’s rituals. When you stop finding meaning, you’ve found God.

Don't create war between your good (Rajasic) and bad (Tamasic) qualities. Accept both so that the divine quality (Sattvic) can start flowing from inside you.
