Thus Spoke Sai

 

The baby is calm and unaffected on the lap of the mother since it has faith in

the mother. The mother points out to someone as its father, to another as

grandpa, to another as its sister or brother, and the child accepts these

statements without question. The mother creates the faith in the father for the

child. So, too, Mother Nature proclaims that there is a Father who has designed

and who is energizing and motivating these worlds, but man does not accept this

for he has lost the capacity of faith. Faith is the basis of every act. You do

not run away from the barber because he is armed with a sharp razor. You place

faith in him and allow him to cut your hair, quietly submitting to his

idiosyncrasies. You give away costly clothes to the laundry (dhobi), since you

have faith that he will return them washed and ironed. You have faith in the

driver of your car, in the engineer who built your house. So, too, believe in

the Inner Motivator, the Atman within, the Voice of God.
