The Divine Law

       The Divine state exists everywhere. If we realise it we will come to understand that all the actions performed by the Divine are law and are rightful. If we realise this properly, we will not lament - 'Alas! I had offered five coconuts to the God! But my child has still not recovered'. How many mistakes have we committed before making the offering? All those actions are bringing the painful results now.

     Hence we should not go so far as to claim that God is blind. Realise the truth that the Divine never errs and it is God's actions that exists as laws everywhere. Peace is born at this moment of realisation.

     Today we are in possession of an object. God has given it. God has granted us with health, knowledge, wealth, position ... But we regret that 'I have not received my due promotion yet. It should have come a long ago. But still it has not come'.

      What has happened as a result? We lose our existing happiness and joy. We draw imaginary boundaries and restrict ourselves. The happiness that existed disappears. All this was granted by God.

      In the restricted state of mind we think that 'We should be only like this. We should be only like that... This is bad. This is good...' Is this really beneficial? It may be good. It may be bad. But we restrict ourselves imaginary. As long as we exist in this imaginary state, failing to celebrate what we have received until now, not knowing how to utilise it, we divert our mind saying 'It would be nice having this object. It would be nice having that object'. Who enjoys the benefit of everything? We forget that it is God who has provided us with everything until now.
