Fasting from food deprives your body,
Of energy to function. Fasting from action of duty, Deprives your mind to rest. What I ask you to fast is to fast words. Observe silence And you will speak the strongest language of all. A single word uttered, Leads to a multitude of thoughts. Too many words, Leads to too many thoughts. These causes chaos, restlessness And spiritual, mental and physical fatigue. Talking can cause even more pain and stress, Than a tedious physical action. A pure mind is a mind with no thoughts. A pure heart is that which knows only love. A pure language is that of silence. From: Sai Darshan by Seema Dewan The Divine self is the Reality of everyone, however distinct they may appear in physical form or mental equipment. When one lamp lights many lamps, they all shine with equal brilliance. The One Supreme Effulgence is the origin of all the particularized effulgence.
