Satsang


Sometimes when we are travelling, our car breaks down. We don't waste time sending for a mechanic who lives far away; we ask passing motorists to help us. When someone stops and asks what happened, we tell them that the car has broken down, and they lift up the hood and use their common sense to fix it. If someone were to shoot you and the doctor said to operate, would you ask him to first tell you his religion and where he is from? You won't ask all that. You will simply say, "Okay, take out the bullet. I am in agony." That is why one saint said, "Don't ask a saint about his caste or creed. Anyone who meditates on God becomes His." It is all a matter of meditation. If God does not discriminate between souls, why should those people who call themselves His devotees?
