Gratitude Heart Sea

More From Sri Chinmoy

A prayerful life is the key to possessing gratitude. we often take for granted the people who most deserve our gratitude. let us not wait until it is too late for us to express our gratitude. feeling gratitude and not expressing it is like wrapping a present and not giving it. if i gratitude be numbered among the serious sins, then gratitude takes its place among the noblest of virtues. to express gratitude is gracious and honorable, to enact gratitude is generous and noble, but to live with gratitude ever in our hearts is to touch heaven.

The sea of galilee and the dead sea are made of the same water. it flows down, clean and cool, from the heights of herman and the roots of the cedars of lebanon. the sea of galilee makes beauty of it, the sea of galilee has an outlet. it gets to give. it gathers in its riches that it may pour them out again to fertilize the jordan plain. but the dead sea with the same water makes horror. for the dead sea has no outlet. it gets to keep.

Exultation that does not flow from education, affections that do not flow from knowing, savoring that does not flow from seeing, feeling that does not flow from thinking - are hollow and rootless - noisy gongs and clanging cymbals. and god is not glorified by artificial and empty passions. true delight is rooted in true doctrine. god-centered exultation is rooted in god-centered education.
Passion Thinking Knowing
But in a way you can say that after leaving the sea, after all those millions of years of living inside of the sea, we took the ocean with us. when a woman makes a baby, she gives it water, inside her body, to grow in. that water inside her body is almost exactly the same as the water of the sea. it is salty, by just the same amount. she makes a little ocean, in her body. and not only this. our blood and our sweating, they are both salty, almost exactly like the water from the sea is salty. we carry oceans inside of us, in our blood and our sweat. and we are crying the oceans, in our tears.

Everyone who’s born has come from the sea. your mother’s womb is just a sea in small. and birds come of seas on eggs. horses lie in the sea before they’re born. the placenta is the sea. your blood is the sea continued in your veins. we are the ocean — walking on the land.

Now if you are going to win any battle you have to do one thing. you have to make the mind run the body. never let the body tell the mind what to do. the body will always give up. it is always tired morning, noon, and night. but the body is never tired if the mind is not tired. when you were younger the mind could make you dance all night, and the body was never tired... you've always got to make the mind take over and keep going.

Purposeful giving is not as apt to deplete one's resources; it belongs to that natural order of giving that seems to renew itself even in the act of depletion.
Inspirational Order Giving
Some humans would do anything to see if it was possible to do it. if you put a large switch in some cave somewhere, with a sign on it saying 'end-of-the-world switch. please do not touch,' the paint wouldn't even have time to dry.
