Guest guest Posted January 8, 2000 Report Share Posted January 8, 2000 ~~~~~~ om shanthi om~~~~~~ Excerpted from the Gospel of Sri Ramakrishna p.165 Sunday 9/1/00 The Master Said: " Take the instance of a mother: her son dies and she suffers bitter grief; but after a few days she forgets all about it. The mother, so overwhelmed with sorrow a few days before, now attends to her toilet and puts on her jewelry. A father becomes bankrupt through the marriage of his daughters, yet he goes on having children year after year. People are ruined by litigation, yet they go to court all the same. Again, the worldly man is like a snake trying to swallow a mole. The snake can neither swallow the mole nor give it up " om tat sat ~~~~~~ om shanthi om~~~~~~ Extrait du Gospel de Sri Ramakrishna p.165 Dimanche 9/1/00 Le Maitre Dit: " Prenez l'exemple d'une mere: son fils est mort et elle souffre la peine amere; mais apres quelques jours elle oublie tous a son sujet. La mere, ainsi accablee avec la douleur quelques jours avant, maintenant s'occupe sa toilette en mettant ses bijoux. Un pere devient en faillite par le mariage de ses filles, pourtant il continue de produire des enfants une annee apres l'autre. Les gens sont ruines par le litige, pourtant ils vont aller a la cour quand meme. Encore, l'homme mondaine est comme un serpent essayant d'avaler une taupe. Le serpent ne peut pas d'avaler la taupe ni peut-il le renoncer " om tat sat ~~~~~~om shanthi om~~~~~~~ ____ 123India - India's Premier Search Engine Get your Free Email Account at http://www.123india.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
