In plain words
An ordinary magnet attracts a piece of iron. But this divine magnet attracts the whole world. Such a power of attraction has always been in Swami. But since Śivarātri it has been growing day by day. Because of it, if I put one foot forward, the other foot drags. The earth too has a power of attraction, has it not! All this happens by the power of attraction; it is not something that causes pain. Swami has no ailments of any kind. This power is growing day by day. If I touch anything with my hand, it comes along, clinging to the hand. You should not think that such a power of attraction is in Swami alone. It is in you too. If you hold this ‘power’ in the right way, it will grow to any extent. Not only this. I am telling you one more small thing. As this power of attraction grows, the crowds too are growing. From now on it will not be possible to hold these crowds. The one who attracts all is God. God's attraction is very sacred. As I speak with you now, the earth is pulling my foot. If I lift one foot, the other drags. This will go on growing. This is a Divine Magnet. Where does this attraction come from? It comes from Transcendental Truth. That is the truth that does not change. It always gives attraction.
Every day boxes of medicine come to me in the post. So many people send all sorts of things. “Swami! Rub this on and the pain will go,” they write. This is not something that goes away by rubbing. When I have no pain at all, why should I rub it on? People of little understanding say, rub on this oil, rub on that oil. But the more you rub it, the more it grows; it does not lessen. What I need is the principle of Prema in you. Through that principle of Prema, Prema will grow and this whole world will become full of Prema. To this day I have not had the least pain. I keep walking, I keep moving about. But because the earth pulls, it is very hard to put one foot down and lift the other. That is why I walk slowly. For what is happening in this way you invent so many stories: Swami has this ailment, that ailment...
