The Lord loves, not the Bhaktha but his Bhakthi - Swami

[Guest guest]

The Lord loves, not the Bhaktha (devotee) but his Bhakthi, remember. The Lord's grace is like rain, pure water, falling equally everywhere; but its taste gets changed according to the soil through which it flows. So also the Lord's words are sweet to some, bitter to others.

 

The Lord's ways are mysterious; He blessed Vidhura with the words, "Be destroyed" and Dhusshaasana with the words, "Live for a thousand years;" He meant that Vidhura's 'I' will be destroyed and that the wicked Dhusshaasana will have to suffer the ills and tribulations of this world for ten centuries. You do not know the real reasons behind the actions of the Lord. You cannot understand the motives of other men who are almost like you in everything, actuated by the same motives and having the same likes and dislikes!
