Each of us has been brought up in a certain religion or tradition. But how can one be a true representative of that religion? Bhagawan lovingly answers for us today.
First eliminate all that is bad in you and then imbibe all that is good. It is a sin to accuse others when there is a mountain of evil within you. The same sentiment was echoed by Jesus. Man today is not making an attempt to recognise the innumerable faults in him; instead, he is magnifying the minutest faults in others. In fact, he is searching for mistakes in others with a thousand eyes. This is the sad state of man today. Man is losing his true identity because he has allowed evil qualities to enter his heart. People today are more interested in finding others’ faults rather than seeing their merits. He is a true human being who sees only good in others. He is a true Christian, a true Sikh, a true Hindu, a true Muslim, who cultivates love in the field of his heart. Unfortunately, today no one is sowing the seeds of love in his heart. Then how do you expect the harvest of love? How do you call a person a true Hindu if there is no love in him?
