Guest guest Posted October 19, 2007 Report Share Posted October 19, 2007  When a match is struck against the matchbox, it catches fire. But, where is the fire? Is it in the matchstick or the matchbox? In fact, the fire is latent in both. It is when they come in contact that ignition results. Similarly, the effulgence latent in the heart and mind emerges as Divinity when the heart and mind act in unison. Just as the fire latent in the matchbox and matchstick is one only, the effulgence encased in the mind and heart is the same. Baba - Summer Showers 1996, Page 56. Love ALL Serve ALL. God is Great.B.Viswanathan [http://azhagi.com] EITHER: Surrender to God 'unreservedly' - Leave everything entirely to Him. His is the burden; you have no longer any cares. He knows what is best and when and how to do it. OR: Investigate resolutely into the cause of misery, Enquire to whom all questions arise, Dive deep inside the Heart, Go into the very source and Merge in the Self. These are the only two ways for 'Self-Realisation'. - Ramana Maharishi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
