Msg for the Day

[Guest guest]

57. Though your mind lacks the strength of discrimination or

dispassion (viveka and vairagya) required to withdraw itself from the

false attraction of the pleasures of this unreal world, your mind

will naturally and spontaneously become mature to the extent to which

you humbly and lovingly come very close and associate with

enlightened sages (Jnanis), who abide as the reality (sat).

 

58. If you ask how, just as even a fresh plantain tree will become

dry and catch fire when it comes in close proximity to a raging

forest fire, so the minds of those who associate with Jnanis will,

unknown to themselves, be made by that association to attain great

love to attend to and abide in Self.
