Strive to acquire Love. Love is your real property. Realise this truth. There is no other quality greater and valuable than Love. Even if some such quality exists, it is of no real use for the goal of life. Therefore, try to recognise the love manifest in every human being. It is only then, you would have realised your own true nature.....You are not the body, the mind or the intellect. You have to achieve that, from which all these have emanated. Suppose you want ghee (calrified butter). What is its source? Milk. From milk comes curd, from which comes butter, and from butter comes ghee. Therefore, if you go to the source itself, you can be happy....You are not the body, mind, intellect or senses – you are verily the source for all these. Therefore, do not waste your time in the pursuit of all
sorts of material possessions.
