Guest guest Posted October 31, 2001 Report Share Posted October 31, 2001 Jaya Guru Datta, Here is today's saying: “Ideal prayer consists of begging God to grant desirelessness. Sensible thinking proves that it is impossible to extinguish the fire of desires. It is funny that man desires so many things, that even if they were somehow granted to him, the lifespan would be less than the time required for fulfilling those desires. Also, fulfillment of one desire gives birth to another desire-- this time a bigger one. Its fulfillment generates an even bigger desire. It does not end." Sri Swamiji Speech at Hindu Temple, Augusta, Georgia, USA April 8, 1990 reprinted in Bhakti Mala, May 1995, pp. 13-14 Sri Guru Datta, Swamiji Says Suggest a quote for this week's Swamiji Says!
