Passage 6

Tap any word for its meaning.

In plain words

I am always ready to speak with you. But your elders did not give Me the chance. Otherwise, every day, for as long as you like, I am ready to speak with you. Receiving the Prema of all of you, I am very happy. It is your good fortune to receive My Prema. The relationship between you and Swami is a relationship of Prema. All are born in Prema alone, nourished by Prema alone, and live in Prema alone. Never forget this principle of Prema.

(After singing the song “Prema mudita manase kaho Rāma Rāma Rām…”, Bhagavān continued His divine discourse and said:)

Whether I speak today or sing a song, the reason is only the Prema I have for you. Your Prema is reflected in Me, and My Prema in you. Receiving your Prema, I shower My Prema on all of you. For everyone, Prema alone is the most important of all. What holds all of us together is nothing but the power of Prema. Without Prema there would be no bond of any kind even between mother and child. The Prema between you and Swami is far greater than the love between a mother and her child. I hope that all of you will lead your lives in happiness and joy.
