Guest guest Posted June 10, 2006 Report Share Posted June 10, 2006 Om Namah Shivaya, During the second day of the Tacoma '06 Retreat Big Swami said “Effort is essential and ultimately our capacity is unlimited. However, only when we realize that what we think as our capacity is not ours at all but God’s does our capacity grow. This is exactly what Amma mentioned in Her question and answer session yesterday Become like a brush in the hands of painter, a pen in the hands of a writer. Become an instrument in the hands of God. Amma also says that we should constantly remember that we are not the doer, just an instrument; a vehicle for Gods power. When we realize that the power to do comes from beyond, our power to do, increases radically.” Big Swami June 4, 2006 THE ABOVE IS TRANSCRIPTED VERBATIM FROM THE SATSANG CD. I WAS BLESSED TO ATTEND AND SOMEHOW THIS STATEMENT FAILED TO REGISTER IN MY MIND UNTIL HEARING IT ON THE TAPE. OH WELL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
