Always
experience the grace of God
The Lord exists, the Lord
exists everywhere at all times; the Lord belongs to all, he is as well as
yours—as much yours as of any of the most eminent saints or exalted souls. Ever
repose firm and unwavering faith in the Lord; rest assured that His unmotivated
grace is incessantly raining on you every moment.
The existence of God, His
omnipotence, His omniscience, His natural affection for all created beings, His
friendliness towards the poor and afflicted are abiding, genuine, beginning
less, unbroken and poundless. Never harbour the least doubt about it. On the
other hand repose firm faith in it.
These virtues of Lord, which
constitute His very being, are ever operating for you: the more you believe it
the more you will realize that, ever keeping by your side—remaining with you He
is doing the highest good to you by His inconceivable, inexplicable, infinite
power, omniscience, goodwill and friendliness towards the poor and the
distressed.
When come to have faith in
Him and in His virtues, which constitute His very essence, you will experience
the highest peace and supreme happiness even in the most distressing, painful
and agonizing circumstances. You will ever find that, riding you of your infatuation
for your body and mind, which have been falsely assumed by you as your own, He
is making the benign arrangements to keep you nearest to Himself in order to
confer the highest blessing on you.
Every dispensation of the
Lord is directed towards your decided good; therefore never give way to despair,
never be afraid, and never feel dejected. Repose faith in the abiding,
motiveless grace of the Lord; expecting nothing from the living beings and
inanimate objects of the world, repose full faith in the Lord for your real
good and be definitely optimistic about it. Remains constantly hopeful and
enjoy the highest bliss under all circumstances.
Really speaking, you have
been sent to this world solely for the purpose of serving the Lord. Recognizing
very possession, every thought, every power and potency, nay, every activity of
yours to be the Lord’s, you have to remain exclusively engaged in His service
all the time without pause. If, instead of this, you deem yourself as having
come to this world for any other purpose or if, claiming the living beings,
inanimate objects and circumstances of this world as your own, you seek to use
them for your own gratification, you are grievously mistaken; you are not only
mistaken but you are committing a crime, accumulating sin, the consequences of
which you will bitterly to reap.
Whatever good thoughts you
entertain or virtuous acts you perform, you do so under the prompting of the
Lord and with the energy lent to you by the Lord. Never pride yourself in the
least on any good thought or noble deed, claiming the thought or deed to be
yours. On the other hand, feel grateful to the Lord on the ground that the Lord
employed you as an instrument in accomplishing a noble deed, and remains
engaged in His service with added zeal.
The benign and gracious
dispensation of the Lord has been shaped according to His all-comprehending
vision. How that dispensation will operate and how and in what form it will
bear fruit stands predetermined. Therefore never feel bored, never get nervous,
never be impatient, never let your optimism receive any set-back and never
harbour in any case the least doubt about its benign and divine nature.
Promptitude and delay both are decidedly conducive to your highest good
according to the benign dispensation of the Lord. What you have to do is that,
constantly looking forward to His grace every day, and perceiving His grace
everywhere under all circumstances, remains engaged in His worship—in His
all-round service.
