Daivapreethi (Love of God) and paapabheethi (fear of sin) are the two requisites for sanctifying our life

[Guest guest]

The path of devotion was laid down to enable man to merge with God. The goal is mergence, as the rivers know and strive for. The waters of the sea are raised by the sun as clouds into the sky, and the clouds pour them as rain back onto the earth, to flow back into the sea through many a ravine, as a stream or tributary-fed river. Merging in the Source from which one took form, is the ultimate destiny. The river has the passion of overwhelming love which leads it down the slopes until it reaches the loved one, where the lover, loved and love, all three merge in one illuminating ecstasy. Prema (highest love) is the attachment to God that does not allow anything to interfere or diminish its quality or depth.
