Guest guest Posted March 10, 2009 Report Share Posted March 10, 2009 49. We are all living cells in the body of God To think that someone is your friend and another enemy is an error. Such a delusion has to be given up. The Lord who is the embodiment of love is the only true and constant companion, friend, guide and protector. Know this and live in this knowledge. This is the way to lead a life of Dharma (righteousness). The Dharmic way of life is the road to Self-realization. Those who walk along it are dear to the Lord. He dwells with all who are truthful and whose deeds spring from Dharma. The joy that one gets while promoting another's joy is incomparable. Only the blind will be indifferent to the dismal condition of others; only the deaf will be unaffected by the sobs of others. Your heart must melt in compassion when the eye sees another person suffering. That is the sign of the pure or noble (Satwik) individual. The ignorant (Tamasik) individual will be dull, bovine and indifferent to the hardships of others. The passionate (Rajasik) man will rush to punsih the person who caused the suffering and might even forget to relieve the misery of the person affected. Remember that there are no others. You are all living cells in the body of God. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
