Thought for the Day

Just as a fish can live only when it is immersed in water and feels the element all around it, so too the human is an animal that can live only when immersed in bliss. One must have bliss not only at home, in society, and in the world but, more than all, in the heart. As a matter of fact, bliss in the heart produces bliss everywhere. The heart is the spring of joy. That spring has to be touched by constant meditation, recitation of God’s name, and the intermittent dwelling on the glory, the grace, and the inexhaustible manifestations of the Lord. Hold fast to the goal; the devotee should never turn back. Never give way to doubt or despair. A person driving a car concentrates on the road, anxious to save themselves and others from accident. In this case, fear induces single-mindedness. Love is a greater force that helps concentration. With steady and resolute love, concentration becomes intense and unshakeable.
