Durg Chander lived without any faith in God. Suddenly one day he fell from a hilltop and found himself dangling from just the grip of a tree's root. He suddenly remembered people talking about God all the time and cried out, "Oh God! I have never had faith in you; are you really up there? Can you save me now?" God answered, "Sure son, just let go of the root that you are holding and I will hold you from beneath." Durg cried out again: "Is there anyone else out there who can help me!"

Our faith is never total Surrender. Surrender! and you will be cradled in every step of your life by the Life Force that is cradling this entire Universe.

Haughty Ananda boarded a ferry boat that was going to the mainland. Inside the boat, he was pacing up and down. The ferryman told him to sit quietly. Haughty replied, "I have no time to sit, I have to reach quickly!"

If we Surrender to the Cosmos that is taking care of us and continue doing our work, we can unload a big burden off us. We don't do this and end up taking on undue tensions and sorrows in life.

One night, 2 drunkards were walking down a street past a halogen lamp. One of them exclaimed, "Look! the sun has come down for us!", to which the other replied, "No, it is night time, it is the moon." The first one continued, "It is yellow in colour and therefore is the sun." A third man also consumed by liquor came by them. They asked him, "Sir, please tell us whether this is the sun or the moon." The man replied, "I am new to this neighborhood; I do not know."

When you ask someone who does not know, you will either not get an answer or get the wrong answer. The source of information is very critical to our growth especially to our spiritual growth; that is why Masters appear on Planet Earth every now and then.
