Thoughts and Inspirations for the day 16th Aug 209

[Mani kutty]

All men in all countries are pilgrims proceeding along the path to God. The progress of each is decided by the discipline adopted, the character formed, the ideal kept in view, the leadership chosen and the faith implanted. Just as trees and plants, birds and beasts differ from one region to another, the rituals, practices, disciplines and ideals may differ from community to community; each is good for that region and that stage of development. You cannot transplant one, from one human community to another. The atmosphere in which you have grown up is the most congenial for you.

Any number of examples can be given to prove the existence of Divinity. Who made the chillies hot and spicy? Who is the cause of bitterness in Neem and fragrance in flowers? These are simple examples for the manifestation and expression of Divinity. Every object in the world has a unique attribute which proves the existence of Divinity as its very life principle. You do not need to undertake any particular Sadhana (Spiritual Practice) in order to visualize Divinity. When you understand the Divine Principle in full, you can worship God in true sense. You can worship God in each and every atom and in each cell of the creation. Purify your heart and try to know your own Divine Nature. Make efforts to visualize and experience this oneness.
