Misery Does Not Exist In Reality But

We Loosely Talk Of Self-realization, For Lack Of A Better Term. But How Can One Realize That Which Alone Is Real? All We Need To Do Is To Give Up Our Habit Of Regarding As Real That Which Is Unreal. All Religious Practices Are Meant Solely To Help Us Do This.

The 'i' Casts Off The Illusion Of The 'i' And Yet Remains 'i'. Such Is The Paradox Of Self-realization. The Realized Do Not See Any Paradox In It. Consider The Case Of The Worshipper. He Approaches God And Prays To Be Absorbed In Him. He Then Surrenders Himself In Faith And By Concentration. And What Remains Afterwards? In The Place Of The Original 'i', Self-surrender Leaves A Residuum Of God In Which The 'i' Is Lost. That Is The Highest Form Of Devotion Or Surrender And The Peak Of Detachment.

The Grace Of The Guru Is Like An Ocean. If One Comes With A Cup He Will Only Get A Cupful. It Is No Use Complaining Of The Niggardliness Of The Ocean. The Bigger The Vessel The More One Will Be Able To Carry. It Is Entirely Up To Him.
