You must cultivate love towards everyone, however distinct the character and capacity of each may be. Though the same blood flows through the entire body, the eye cannot smell, the ear cannot taste, and the nose cannot see. Do not over-emphasise the distinctions and quarrel. Emphasise the basic brotherhood and practise love. As sugar that has dissolved in the cup of water is invisible, but patent to the tongue in every drop, so too the Divine is invisible but immanent; capable of being experienced, in every individual, whether he is at the bottom or at the top. Do Namasmarana (repeated remembrance of the Lord); taste the sweetness that is in the heart of everyone, and dwell on His glory and compassion which those names summarise. Then, it will be easier for you to visualise Him in all, love Him in all, and adore Him in all.
Bagavan Sri Sri Sri Sathya Sai Baba
