Guest guest Posted October 13, 2007 Report Share Posted October 13, 2007 Thus Spake The Lord The mind has to be watched vigilantly, and warned against its own tricks. It is a clever actor, embroiling you in many a close adventure. A hermit once met the Cholera Goddess on the road, returning from a village where she had thinned the population. He asked her how many she had taken into her lap. She replied, "Only ten." Really speaking, the casualties were a hundred. She explained, "I killed only ten; the rest died of fear!" This indicates that of all the fears of man, the fear of death is the fiercest as well as the most foolish. For, none can escape death, having committed the error of birth. Man is Atmaswarupa (Self-embodied), that is, Abhayaswarupa (Fearlessness embodied). If man knows his real nature, he will give no room for weakness or cowardice. Believe that Love is God, Truth is God. Love is Truth, Truth is Love. It is only when you love that you have no fear, for fear is the mother of falsehood. If you have no fear, you will adhere to truth. The mirror of Love reflects the Atma in you and reveals to you that the Atma is universal, immanent in every being.
