There are two truths that must be accepted by every pilgrim or devotee:

 

1. Devotion has to be full, free and comprehensive.

2. Divinity must be conceived as full, free and comprehensive.

 

On the other hand, devotion today is almost always only 'part-time.' That is to say, whenever disease, defeat, or disappointment happen to assail you, you turn to God and pray for His grace; but when you are happy, prosperous, healthy and in good shape, you ignore God and claim that they are all due to your own abilities and achievements.

 

God is ignored in sunshine, He is wanted only when there is night. Devotion must persist and flourish, unaffected by time, place or circumstance. God too has to be experienced in His fullness, and the Aanandha of that experience made one's permanent possession.

 

- From Swami's Onam Divine Discourse in 1974.
