dattaswami Posted May 12, 2007 Report Share Posted May 12, 2007 Worldly bonds and Selfish love Selfless love is like sugar that can be some times seen even in the worldly bonds, which do not deserve. The selfish love is the salt, which is also white like the sugar and is generally seen in the worldly bonds. The worldly bonds are like the pickles which deserve the mixing up of the salt only and not the sugar. God is like the Badam Kheer (special sweet) and it deserves only the sugar. If you put the salt in Badam Kheer and sugar in pickles, you will lose the taste in both the places. Goddess Lakshmi is deity of money and wealth. In the world (Pravrutti), she is the ruling queen. But she does not look like the queen. She is always sitting at the divine feet of the Lord in His service. What does this mean? The wealth is not meant for attaining power and prestige in the world but it is only meant for the service of the Lord in His divine mission.
