Guest guest Posted February 19, 2010 Report Share Posted February 19, 2010 " Once Krishna and Arjuna were going together along the open road. Seeing a bird in the sky, Krishna asked Arjuna, "Is that a dove?" He replied, "Yes, it is a dove." He asked Arjuna, "Is it an eagle?" Arjuna replied promptly, "Yes, it is an eagle.No, Arjuna, it looks like a crow to Me. Is it not a crow?" asked Krishna. Arjuna replied, "I am sorry, it is a crow beyond doubt." Krishna laughed and chided him for his agreeing to whatever suggestion was given. But Arjuna said, "For me, your words are far more weighty than the evidence of my eyes; you can make it a crow, a dove or an eagle and when you say it is a crow, it must be one." Implicit faith is the secret of spiritual success ".- From Swami's Divine Discourse on Vijayadhashami in Prashanthi Nilayam, 1953. Om Sai Ram The INTERNET now has a personality. YOURS!
