Guest guest Posted May 30, 2008 Report Share Posted May 30, 2008 Love is a Gift from God - Swami When I distributed saris to the 'messengers' yesterday they expressed their gratitude by saying, "thanks, Swami." I exhorted them, "Do not thank Me. I am not a third person. Do you thank your mother who serves you food everyday? You may thank an outsider from whom you receive a favor, but I am not an outsider". So, never say thanks to Swami. Consider Swami as your own. Only then you will have the right to approach Swami. I do not crave anything from you for Myself; nor do I say or do anything for Myself. I do not want anything except one - your love. Even that is not your property that is also My property. Love cannot be earned by any means. It is a gift of God.Gift this gift of love, to God. Only then you will have self- satisfaction. That is your duty - From Swami's 1998 Christmas Discourse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
