The Lord cares for the motive, not the object offered. The tiny leaf from the cooking vessel that Dhroupadhi gave Him satisfied His hunger and the hunger of the universe, along with His - for, she saturated it with her Bhakthi. The Thulasi leaf placed by Rukmini in the scale was able to balance the weight of Him who has all the 14 worlds in His belly, for, her intent added so much weight to it. The handful of flattened rice that Kuchela took to Krishna was worth less than a paisa but, it was suffused so heavily with the devotion and faith of his wife that it brought great good fortune. It is possible to fill in an atom of deed, a world of Feeling and the Lord will value and appreciate that.

 

- From Swami's Discourse in Prasanthi Nilayam in March 1963.

 

Om Sai Ram
