Nowadays men are leading their lives just like that elephant. Man is depending entirely upon the strength of his body, upon the strength of his intellect, upon the strength of his relations and upon the strength of his learning. He is not counting and depending upon the divine strength. When the elephant found that it lost all its strength, it thought that it should pray to God. Why did not the elephant pray to God for such a long time, and why did it try to pray to God in the last moments only? We must try to find out the reason for both these. We are leading our lives entirely depending upon the strength of the body and the strength of the mind. If one depends entirely on these two strengths alone, he will not be able to get happiness. Even though he pretends to look happy outside, really speaking, he has no laughter or happiness in his heart. The reason is that the strength of the body and the strength of the mind are not capable of giving any happiness or peace to man. When we dedicate these two strengths to God, and if we think that everything depends upon the grace of God, then we may get peace and happiness with the grace and kindness of God.
