पृथ्वी रेणुरणुः पयांसि कणिकाः फल्गुः स्फुलिङ्गो लघु-
स्तेजो निःश्वसनं मरुत्तनुतरं रन्ध्र सुसूक्ष्म नमः।
क्षुद्रा रुद्रपितामहप्रभृतयः कीटाः समस्ताः सुरा
दृष्टा यत्र स तारको विजयते श्रीपादधूलीकणः ॥१९

 

The feet whose dust-particle makes the earth look like a little particle of dust, Water seems to be just a small drop, Fire seems to be an insignificantly small spark, Wind seems to be a soft breath. Sky looks a minute hole, Gods like Siva, Brahma etc. seem like the smallest of insects, Victory be to the dust-particle of those beautiful feet.19

The Divinity Within

The Divinity Within

 

ALL IN us that is not wholly consecrated to the Divinity within is in the possession, by fragments, of the whole en-tirety of things that encompass us and act upon what we

improperly call “ourselves”, whether through the intermediary of our senses or directly on the mind by suggestion.

The only way to become a conscious being, to be oneself, is to unite with the divine Self that is in all. For that, we must, by the aid of concentration, isolate ourselves from external influences. When you are one with the Divinity within, you are one with all things in their depths. And it is through It and by It that you must enter into relation with them. You are then, but without attraction or repulsion, near to whatever is near to It

and far from whatever is far.

Living among others you should always be a divine exam-ple, an occasion offered to them to understand and to enter on the path of the life divine. Nothing more: you should not even have the desire to make them progress; for that too would be something arbitrary.

Until you are definitively one with the Divinity within, the best way, in your relations with the outside, is to act according to the unanimous advice given by those who have themselves had the experience of this unity.

To be in a state of constant benevolence, with this as your rule, not to be troubled by anything and not to be the cause of trouble to others, not to inflict suffering upon them so far as possible.
