The first step in spiritual training is to curb the Icchaa shakthi (power of desires), which prompts the senses to pursue objects. If the iccha (wish) is for God, it is good; if, on the other hand, it is for objective pleasure, then it harms the individual... If a dacoit cuts off your hand, it is himsa (injury); if the doctor amputates it, he saves your life and so, it is ahimsa (non-injury). Vishaya vaasana (attachment to sense objects) makes an act low; Bhagavath vaasana (attachment to God) makes it sacrosanct.

- Divine Discourse, December 6, 1963.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Love will be fostered only when non-violence is practised. - Baba
