Guest guest Posted September 16, 2008 Report Share Posted September 16, 2008 Thus Spake The Lord Everyone should respect all others as one's own kin, having the same Divine spark, and the same Divine Nature. Then, there will be effective production, economic consumption and equitable distribution, resulting in peace and promotion of love. Now, love based on the innate Divinity is absent and so, there is exploitation, deceit, greed and cruelty. If man becomes aware of all men being 'cells' in the Divine body, then there will be no more 'devaluation' of man. Man is a diamond; but, he is now treated by other men and by himself as a piece of glass! Man can realize his mission on the earth only when he knows himself as Divine and when he reveres all others as Divine. And, man has to worship God in the form of Man. God appears before him as blind beggar, an idiot, a leper, a child, a decrepit old man, a criminal or a madman. You must see even behind these veils, the divine embodiment of love, power and wisdom, the Sai, and worship Him through seva (selfless service). God cannot be identified with one Name and one Form. He is all Names and all Forms. Reference: Sathya Sai Speaks, Vol. XIII, Chapter 8. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
