You are a fragment of the Divine. This is the great truth that everyone has to realise fully.

True Love should remain unaffected by weal or woe. Baba A machine without the power to activate it, is of no use; so too, a human body without the Divine Spark is of no avail. Without that spark, every person is a tree that bears no fruit, a cow that yields no milk; one must become aware of the...
