Thought for the Day

 You stay far away and complain that Grace has not come! You do not scrape off, by the process of repentance, mud and rust that prevent attachment. You come near for some time and stray away into the distance. I don't mean physical distance at all. You may be physically far, but mentally by My side. I do not measure distance in miles or metres; I am with you, in you, beside you, ever; only you must be aware of Me and make use of My presence. You must become an Artha, torn by intense suffering to sense the Lord. Suffer the pangs of distress. You must realise that mere suffering is fruitless, without the knowledge of the path to attain the Lord. You have to be transformed into a jijnasu, a seeker. Analyse the four Purusharthas (four goals of life) and realise that Moksha (Liberation) is the goal, the culmination. Start craving for that, as an Artharti, the lover of the truest gain. Seek that which, when secured, all else is secured!
