Guest guest Posted March 4, 2008 Report Share Posted March 4, 2008 Many of you are feeling bad, thinking that Swami is upset with you and is not talking to you. I do not have even a trace of anger or dislike towards the students or the elders. I consider students as My very life. In such a case how can o be upset with them? But I do not wish to talk to anybody, because I do not want to belittle My own words. I feel it is better not to speak than speak and lose the value of My words. I will speak to you only when you start giving due respect to My words. There is no point in feeling bad that Swami is not talking to you. Make efforts to attain the deservedness, so that Swami would talk to you. I have taught you on innumerable occasions, but have you made any sincere attempt to practice at least one of them? When you do not give up evil tendencies like hatred, jealousy pomp and show, how do you expect Swami to talk to you? Hatred is the greatest enemy of man. Pomp and show give rise to ego, which will in turn ruin the humanness. Love is the common property of one and all. You can attain happiness and peace only when you develop love. But today love is on the decline and hatred is on the rise. We find hatred among the members of the same family students of the same college and inmates of the same Ashram. - From Swami's Divine Discourse on 14.10.1999 at Prasanthi Nilayam Explore your hobbies and interests.
