Guest guest Posted March 12, 2009 Report Share Posted March 12, 2009 So Says Sai The heart of Paramahamsa is like the Lotus. Where is the Lotus born? It is born in mud. Where does it live? It lives on the surface of water. The Lotus is neither defiled by mud nor is it wetted by water. Yet, it cannot survive even for a second without mud and water. Man's accumulated samskaras of the past lives are like mud. The present life can be compared to water. A Paramahamsa is one who is not affected by the consequence of his past life. Though his present life is the consequence of his past samskaras, yet it can be pure and free from the mud of past traits. Source: Sathya Sai Speaks Vol. XXXII Part 1. P. 161/162.
