Every human being is a child of the universe and the universe is his home. The

sojourn on the earth is like erecting a camp for a day. Each one of us is a

child and an inseparable part of the universe, and we would remain so for an

endless duration.

Sage Narada in his 72nd Bhakthi Sutra explains that there are no distinctions of

caste, culture, beauty, kulam, prosperity or profession among ideal devotees. As

per Srimad Bhagavatham, the highest type of devotee is one, who sees the glory

of the God reflected in all beings, high and low, and perceives all beings as

dwelling in Him. The lives of mystics reveal that God is beyond distinctions

like religion, caste, culture, family, wealth or profession. Jesus was a

carpenter, Prophet Mohammed belonged to a trader community, Kanaka Dasa was a

shepherd by birth, and Vijaya Dasa was a Brahmin. Nama Dev was a tailor, Ekanath

was a Sanskrit scholar, Tukaram was a farmer, Gurunanak was a farmer, Gora was a

potter, and Kabir was a weaver. Tulsidas was a Brahmin, Daadu was a cotton

cleaner, and Raidas was a cobbler. Sree Narayana Guru belonged to a backward

community, and Thunjath Ezhuthachan who wrote the Adhyatma Ramayanam also

belonged to a backward community.
