[Guest guest]

The 10th day of August is a very special day, because.......it is

Neil's birthday! Dear Neil, happy birthday from all your friends and

family at the Devi Mandir ! We are delighted to offer this

beautiful Gem of Wisdom from Ramakrishna's Treasure House as our

birthday gift to you:

 

" There was a gentleman who went out into the night with a lantern. He

was an Englishman, a foreigner. No one knew this because no one could

see his face. He held up the lantern so he could see all the other

faces, but no one could see his face. If anyone wanted to see who that

gentleman was, he would have to request him, " Please, sir, take your

light and shine it on your own face. " In the same way, if you want to

see God, you will have to pray to God, " Please, God, just once shine

your Divine Light on Your own Self so that I can see You. " Then only

will you have the vision of God. "

 

may the Light of Wisdom illuminate your heart today and all days,
