If You Want To Go East, Don't

As A Toy Fruit Or A Toy Elephant Reminds One Of The Real Fruit And The Living Animal, So Do The Images That Are Worshipped Remind One Of The God Who Is Formless And Eternal.

One Man May Read The Bhagavata By The Light Of A Lamp, And Another May Commit A Forgery By That Very Light; But The Lamp Is Unaffected. The Sun Sheds Its Light On The Wicked As Well As On The Virtuous.

So Long As The Bee Is Outside The Petals Of The Lily, And Has Not Tasted The Sweetness Of Its Honey, It Hovers Around The Flower Emitting The Buzzing Sound; But When It Is Inside The Flower, It Noiselessly Drinks The Nectar. So Long As A Man Quarrels And Disputes About Doctrines And Dogmas, He Has Not Tasted The Nectar Of True Faith; When He Has Tasted It, He Becomes Quiet And Full Of Peace.

Unalloyed Love Of God Is The Essential Thing. All Else Is Unreal.

You Should Love Everyone Because God Dwells In All Beings.
