The green vitality of a tree is a sign of the Divine Will, which sends its roots deep into the soil. The roots keep the tree safe from storms, holding it fast against the violent tug of winds. So too, if the roots of love in man go down into the springs of the Divine within him, no storm of suffering can shake him and crash him into disbelief. As a lump of sugar sweetens every drop of water in the cup, the eye of love makes every person in the world friendly and attractive. The simple milkmaids of Gokul saw each other as Krishna; such was their overwhelming love for the Divine Incarnation. The Bhagavata, where their love and the love of many other devotees of the Lord are described, is a textbook of Divine Love, Bhakti. Mahabharatha, which describes the exploits and excellences of Krishna, is a textbook of Dharma, of ethics, of social and political life, as corrected and straightened by the supremacy of the Right. Begin loving service, this day, this moment. Each act will urge you to the next, for the thrill is so inspiring!
Bagavan Sri Sri Sri Sathya Sai Baba
