Embodiments of Love - 11.11.2016:

What should we do to turn mini jungles in the cities to loving homes where the Lord dwells? 

Bhagawan lovingly guides us today.

Your home (griha) must resound to the name of Govinda; otherwise, it is just a cave (guha), where wild animals dwell.

 The soul needs a house, and your body itself is its house. In that house too, the Lord’s name must be heard, or else it is a mud pot (ghata), not a human being’s body. 

Then your homes will be immersed in the highest peace (shanti)! Obedience to the Lord’s command is the secret to your liberation. 

Once you decide that the orchard in your mind belongs to Him, all fruits will be sweet! 

Your seeking refuge for protection (saranagathi) will render all fruits acceptable to the Lord, so they cannot be bitter. 

And for water, what can be purer and more precious than your tears — shed not in grief, but in rapture at the chance to serve the Lord and to walk along the path that leads to Him!
