Passage 1

Tap any word for its meaning.

In plain words

Sweeter than sugar, more delicious than the essence of curds, more delicious by far than the richest honey; as the mouth says it over and over, it grows sweeter still and seems amṛta itself; so, every day, remember it well in your mind, the Name of Rāma.

Embodiments of Prema!

To blame and criticise God's līlās or His mighty powers and capacities, saying they are nothing great, is easy! But to know the principle of God is very hard. God, who is everywhere, is in Satya. He is in Asatya. He is in Dharma; He is in Adharma. God is in good and in bad. Of such all-pervading divinity, how can you decide, ‘this is good’, ‘this is bad’; ‘this is God’, ‘this is not’? From ancient times man has searched in many ways into the power of the spiritual principle, and has gone on teaching divinity to the world. Through many ideal experiences they have gone on showing that it has a form, and that it has many good qualities.

What Shines and Blossoms in All Men Is Divinity Alone!

The whole world goes on by three kinds of action. Creation, the sustaining of creation and the destruction of creation: no one of any country, of any age, no scientist and no Vedāntin, nobody at all, can say these are not so. They cannot say it. Yet, though this goes on teaching the principle of God, it does not show God Himself. But it can show a fitting ground for knowing God. When someone says, ‘The Pole Star can be seen above that branch of the tree,’ we take that branch as our guide and are able to see the Pole Star.
