Q. What is the process of drowning impressions in the ocean of the consciousness of eternal now? A. The one who does not know the love of an individual does not know universal love. But if one stands there, one stands there without going forward. The love of an individual in love's path is a doll's play, which is learned for the time to come. So the love of an individual is the first step. But when one progresses then one advances towards the love of a cause, a community, a nation; or even the whole universe. Man, as a human being, is capable of loving one; but his soul, as the light of God is capable of loving not only the world, but even if there were a thousand worlds. For the heart of man is larger than the whole Universe. |
