Guest guest Posted May 1, 2006 Report Share Posted May 1, 2006 A Quotation from Bhagawan -- When the Divine comes down as Avatar - whether it be as Rama or Krishna, Matsya (Fish). Varaaha (Boar) or Vamana - it is only for one purpose. You recognize only the momentary results of the advent. But you should note that the Divine comes as Avatar only to teach mankind the truth about love. "Oh man, it is because you lack love and are filled with selfishness that the world is plunged in so much conflict and chaos. It is only when you develop love and the spirit of sacrifice that you will realize the divinity that is in the human". The man who has no spirit of sacrifice (thyaga) will be a prey to all ills. A man without love is a living corpse. It is love and sacrifice which makes man Divine. -- SSS: Vol. X; Page 229. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
