So when you think about others, you see, Divine Power thinks about you. But when you thinking about yourself, you are extremely miserable, horrible person. Nobody likes you. Nobody wants to talk to you and have anything to do with you because you’re so much concerned about yourself, but when you think about others – small, small things, very small things. Another thing happened that once I went with my daughter to a shop and I’d like one sari very much, I thought it’s good for the evening we have Puja program, but I’m rather miserly about myself, so I said it’s rather expensive why to buy it, so I came and it was all right. Then after some time, you see, I think it was some occasion, so my daughter brought the same sari and she gave it to me. And I was very much touched. You see, because I didn’t buy because I was feeling – I’m a miserly person that way, so she bought it for Me and she gave it to Me and she said, ‘You see what is this sari?’ Said, “Oh, my God,” I said. How – I mean, it’s very subtle understanding of expression of love. I can afford this sari, she can also, but the way she went at the same day when I came home, she went and bought the sari, kept it because she thought that it would be sold out. Because she would like the sari, so she bought it.
That’s how you can suggest. Like once we had a big dinner in our house and my other daughter had given Me a sari as a present. They give sometimes. So that day I wore that sari and she was in tears. She said you have so many beautiful saris, of all the things, you wore this sari. “Because, I said, you are coming for dinner, so I thought it’s better to wear it.” ‘How do you remember, Mummy, that I gave you this?’ It’s just a subtle – now see, this is just matter. Sari is a matter. You see, it’s just a matter, but through that matter how you can express love.
I always give a simile of a glass mean applied with metal. It becomes a mirror. In the same way, if you can apply your feelings to any matter it becomes like a mirror. Anything.
