| Keep the heart pure, unsullied by evil or vice. Let the rays of Love illumine it. Let the foul bats of hatred and greed fly away from the cavity of your hearts; let the clean air of mutual cooperation and help render the cavity safe and sweet. You see these trees; they are able to stand firm and grow because of the roots that have spread out of your sight. You see this garland in my hand. The hundreds of flowers are held together by a thread, which you do not see.... So also, this world is so plentiful, so charming, so rich, so comfortable, so regular in its movements and moods, because it has an unseen Master and law-giver, God. The Unseen is the sustainer of the Seen. - Divine Discourse, March 9th, 1974. |
