Thought for the day

« JUNE 30 »

For you the world outside will now :stand transformed as the very expression or manifestation of God - everywhere the Light of God will dazzle your eyes; even in the apparent diversity and activity of nature You will strangely be conscious of an all- pervading stillness and peace of the. External- a consciousness which is Unshakably permanent. You will also feel that you are liberated from the harassing dualities of life followed by the Crowning experience of an abiding state of ineffable ecstasy.

SWAMI RAMDAS

Once when Krishna was a baby, the women of his village came running to tell his mother, Yashoda that her little boy was eating sand. Baby Krishna denied everything, shaking his little head with determination. But his mother saw the mischief in his eyes and caught hold of his chin to see for herself. Krishna obligingly opened his mouth wide. There, within that little rosebud of a mouth, Yashoda saw the vast starry sky with its innu merable worlds, and all the creatures that had ever lived and would ever be born. Yashoda was overcome with fear and wonder, for this was the child she had been scolding and treating like her own.After a moment, the vision faded, but after that Yashoda always knew the secret – Krishna was her beloved little boy, but he was also the lord of the Universe.
