Guest guest Posted April 29, 2008 Report Share Posted April 29, 2008 Flowers, leaves, fruit and other edibles have a temporary life. Even water breeds germs if kept in a vessel for days. Only vibuthi remains unchanged, as it is the final result of the five elements of creation. Our desires have to be reduced to ashes and vibuthi is symbolic of this detachment and renunciation. One's mind has to become desireless and detached like the ashes in which everything is burnt out. It is that kind of pure mind that has to be offered to God. - Swami From Chandigarh to Chennai - find friends all over India. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
