Thought for the day

Why should one first understand humanness before seeking to experience Divinity? Bhagawan lovingly reminds us today.
The scriptures declare that the Divine descends to the earth in human form to allay the sufferings of those who are sick of body or of mind. Man today seeks to have a vision of the Supra-human Transcendental Being. This is sheer folly because as long as one has the feeling that he is a human being, he can aspire to see God only in human form and is not entitled to see His transcendental form. When one transcends the sense of his humanness, he acquires the privilege to envision the Transcendental Divinity. That is the reason why Rama and Krishna came as Avatars in human form. To claim that when you close your eyes and meditate, you see an effulgent light is only a delusion. There are innumerable things that are not visible to your naked eyes and which are beyond your ken. How do you expect to see them or know them? You know only the human form. So, at the outset, try to understand humanness. You must understand the Life Principle that animates the human. From the Life Principle (Jiva Tatva), you should seek to enquire into the nature of the Divine (Para Tatva).

To understand Divinity, which is beyond the human level, man should also rise to that state which is beyond the human level. – BABA
