Thought for the Day

From the point of view of what one achieves at the end of the journey, there is no difference between a liberated soul(jivanmukta) and a devotee; both are beyond ego (ahamkara),nature (prakriti) with its three attributes or gunas, and the rules and regulations (Dharma) that govern the caste-stage of life(varna-ashrama). The hearts of such will be full of compassion and be filled with the urge to do good to the world. Their divine bliss born of oneness impels them to act in this way. They will have no desires, for desires are the products of feelings of ‘I’ and ‘mine’. Only after these desires are uprooted do people become true devotees, right? So there can be no room in them for desires. They are truly speaking devotees of the embodiments of immortality (amrita-swarupa). For those with that immortal nature, there can be no appetite except for the sweetness of spiritual bliss (ananda).
