The Purpose Of Life Is To Realize

It's A Divine Art To Be Cheerful.

Love Is Essentially Self-communicative: Those Who Do Not Have It Catch It From Those Who Have It.... No Amount Of Rites, Rituals, Ceremonies, Worship, Meditation, Penance And Remembrance Can Produce Love In Themselves. None Of These Is Necessarily A Sign Of Love. On The Contrary, Those Who Sigh Loudly And Weep And Wail Have Yet To Experience Love. Love Sets On Fire The One Who Finds It. At The Same Time It Seals His Lips So That No Smoke Comes Out

When Longing Is Most Intense Separation Is Complete, And The Purpose Of Separation, Which Was That Love Might Experience Itself As Lover And Beloved, Is Fulfilled; And Union Follows. And When Union Is Attained, The Lover Knows That He Himself Was All Along The Beloved Whom He Loved And Desired Union With; And That All The Impossible Situations That He Overcame Were Obstacles Which He Himself Had Placed In The Path To Himself. To Attain Union Is So Impossibly Difficult Because It Is Impossible To Become What You Already Are! Union Is Nothing Other Than Knowledge Of Oneself As The Only One.

Since Male And Female Incarnations Are Equally Necessary For Self-knowledge, It Is Not Right To Look Upon One As Being More Important Than The Other.

But Such A Tiny And Trivial Thing As An Umbrella Can Deprive You Of The Sight Of Such A Stupendous Fact As The Sun.
