Passage 8

In English

Suffuse your entire life with love. The true meaning of life is love. Love is most essential for life. Fill your mind with love and heart with compassion. But man today does not understand the true nature of love and is indulging in worldly love for pleasure. All that is worldly is temporary, momentary and ephemeral. Earlier, the ladies sang the song, “I am God”. Everything is the form of God, and God has infinite number of forms. When one has firm conviction of this truth, then true love will naturally flow from him. From birth to death, man keeps searching for happiness. A student is happy if he passes the exam and goes to the next class in school. But how long does this happiness last? Then he desires to stand first in the university. He is happy when he achieves that. Soon he wants to acquire a postgraduate degree. He gets this and feels happy, but for how long? Thereafter he wants to obtain a job and then a wife. After getting these, he is happy, but for how long? Next he wants a son and then a daughter. In this way, he keeps on struggling for happiness, desiring one object after the other until he retires. Thus, worldly happiness comes and goes; it is impermanent. It is the spiritual happiness that is permanent. It comes from the . No worldly happiness can equal this bliss.
