The Lord will protect in all ways and at all times those who worship Him in
complete and pure uncontaminated devotion (bhakti), just as a mother protects
her infants, a cow saves her calf from danger, and the eyelids guard the eyes
effortlessly and automatically. When the infant grows up into .an adult, the
mother won’t pay so much attention to its safety. So too, the Lord doesn’t pay
much attention to the wise one (jnani). The devotee who worships any form
(saguna bhakta), like an infant of the Lord, has no strength except the
strength of the Lord. For the realized soul (jnani), their own strength is
enough. Therefore, until one can rely on one’s own strength, one must be an
infant in the Lord’s hands, just like a devotee of the Lord’s form. No one can
become a devotee of the Formless Supreme (nirguna bhakta) without having been a
devotee of the form. - Prema Vahini, Ch 48.
To the person who has completely surrendered, everything they experience (good
or bad) is a gift from God. - BABA.
