Actions of an Incarnation, enlightened master can never be without awareness and compassion as HE is in one with Existence!
If a person has committed ten murders, the quantity of murders will not be recorded. But the intensity of the murderer will be recorded.

It is you who choose how to respond, what decisions to make. But you try to fool yourself and others into believing it is someone else who is responsible, who is making you do things their way.

Try to sit down and make two lists. One of all the things that you have and one of all the things that you don’t have. The first list should include every single thing that you have, starting from your eyes, ears, hands and legs, because there are people who don’t have some of these.…
