Inspired Talks 11

 

Prophets preach, but the Incarnations like Jesus, Buddha, Ramakrishna,

can give religion; one glance, one touch is enough. That is the power of

the Holy Ghost, the 'laying on of hands' the power was actually

transmitted to the disciples by the Master - the 'chain of guru -power.'

That, the real Baptism, has been handed down for untold ages.

 

'Bhakti cannot be used to fulfill any desires, itself being the check to

all desires.' Narada gives these as the signs of love: 'When all

thoughts, all words and all deeds are given up unto the Lord, and the

least forgetfulness of God makes one intensely miserable, then love has

begun.
