2 Truths to be accepted by every Devotee There are two truths that must be accepted by every pilgrim or devotee: 1. Devotion has to be full, free and comprehensive. 2. Divinity must be conceived as full, free and comprehensive. You turn to God and pray for His grace; but when you are happy, prosperous, healthy and in good shape, you ignore God and claim that they are all due to your own abilities and achievements. God is ignored in sunshine, He is wanted only when there is night. Devotion must persist and flourish, unaffected by time, place or circumstance. - From Bhagawan's Discourse on 30th August 1974.
Always spread Prema everywhere - Bhagawan I declare that I am in every one, in every being. So do not hate any one, or cavil at any one. Spread Prema always, everywhere. That is the best way of revering Me. Do not seek to measure Me or evaluate Me. I am beyond your understanding. Pray or worship for your own satisfaction and contentment. But, to say that I will respond only if I am called or that I will save only if I am thought of is wrong - From Bhagawan's Discourse on 10th September 1963. Search for your own faults and rectify them first - Bhagawan Criticising others, finding fault with them, all this comes out of egoism. Search for your own faults instead; the faults you see in others are but reflections of your own personality traits; pay no heed to little worries; attach your mind to the Lord. Then you will be led on to the company of good men and your talents will be transmuted. - From Bhagawan's Discourse in Nellore, A.P on 25th July 1958.
