Guest guest Posted May 24, 2009 Report Share Posted May 24, 2009 Why Go To The Temple ? A 'devotee' goer wrote a letter to the editor of a newspaper andcomplained that it made no sense to go to the Temple .'I've gone for 30 years now, he wrote, and in that time I have heardsomething like 3,000 mantras. But for the life of me, I can't remember a single one of them. So, Ithink I'm wasting my time and the Gurus are wasting theirs by givingservices at all.This started a real controversy in the 'Letters to the Editor' column, much to the delight of the editor. It went on for weeks until someonewrote this clincher: I've been married for 30 years now. In that time mywife has cooked some 32,000 meals. But, for the life of me, I cannot recall the entire menu for a single one of those meals. But I do knowthis... They all nourished me and gave me the strength I needed to do mywork. If my wife had not given me these meals, I would be physically dead today. Likewise, if I had not gone to the Temple for nourishment, Iwould be spiritually dead today!When you are DOWN to nothing.... God is UP to something! Faith sees theinvisible, believes the incredible and receives the impossible! Thank God for our physical AND our spiritual nourishment!
