74. God alone can give relief

 

God is said to be a stealer of hearts! The whole world is God's. All of you

belong to Him, though you may not know it. Therefore, He can take anything from

anyone. He is the Master of the ether, wind, fire, water and earth; He can

change the sky into the earth and the earth into the sky. He can also take hold

of the hearts of people and fill them with Love. Once people taste the sweetness

of His Love, they will not desire anything else. That is why He is called

Chittha Chora (stealer of hearts). Pray to Him, " O God! Enter my heart too and

fill it with Love, so that I may love all your children, in all lands. Never

covet what belongs to others. Do not talk about others but, if you must, talk

only of the good in them.

 

The importance of the mind in the process of transformation should be properly

understood, because it is the mind that is the cause of both bondage and

liberation. Your own actions are the cause of your happiness or sorrow. Do not

blame others for your condition. Every thought, every word and every action has

its reflection, resound and reaction. It is a sign of weakness to blame others

for your troubles. You have to bear the consequences of your own actions. If

they are unbearable, pray to God for relief. God alone can give relief in such

cases.
