Guest guest Posted June 19, 2008 Report Share Posted June 19, 2008 Rain may pour on many places. It may fall on rocky stretches, sandy beds, on oceans and on hills and plains, on clayey soil and on red earth. It may fall on garbage and on cultivable fields. The source and quality of rain is 'very pure'. God's grace too is like that. But once the reaches the ground, it assimilates the colour and smell of the soil and flows to lower depths. The rain that falls on the rocky stretches are never absorbed. In sandy stretches, it percolates below. In clayey surface it is retained. God's grace and teachings too affects each individual in various ways according to the traits of the particular individuals. Atheists take it in whereas those who do not believe in God and depend upon their rational mind are like pots kept in upside down posture. Any amount of rainfall will fall of the surface of the pots. Not a drop will reach inside. The atheists on the other hand are like upright pots who collect the rain drops assiduously. Hence, there is no differentiation as far as God is concerned. If we are not benefited by Swami's nearness, the mistake lies in us and not on Swami's grace. Imbibe Him with open heart. Sairam. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
