India is a land of Rishis. Their light is in our bodies, said the Divine Mother. Purity and Truth will call up that light on the surface of our lives if we are in tapas, as it is the light of the Rishis who attained it in tapas. That light was not directly meant to play any role in our domestic or official life. Surely it will have a beneficial effect in the life on one wedded to Truth. The Spirit that is being explained here is the evolving Spirit in the everyday life of Nature called prakriti.
- This Spirit does not require one to shun life, rather it is in life that this Spirit finds a play.
- Not any worship at a temple or rituals at home or japa of any description can evoke this Spirit, but anyone of serious disposition and abiding interest in his own life activities can commission it into action.
- On its appearance, the phrase 'The Impossible has become Possible' will be on everyone's lips.
- It is the heritage of India and to me herein lies the infinite prosperity of her vast masses whose bodies are filled not with the darkness of those who merely toil but the light of the Rishis of old.
Examine your life and you will certainly see at least one event that qualifies for this description. Now that event, in the context of this new understanding, will stand out prominently in recollection. As we relate to our life by the result, not the process by which the result is arrived at, we miss such events.
What miraculous events occur by the conscious invocation of the Spirit, occur by themselves, so that life can be sustained. Coming to such events in one's life, casually in one's conversation we hear people exclaim, "Somehow something happened and I got into IAS, otherwise I would have ended up as a nobody somewhere". Luck seeking one, or misfortune missed are events in anyone's life. In your own life, there certainly can be one that was a landmark but was blissfully forgotten.
