LOVE
Love is the Key, not knowledge
You are the Thuli (Drop). You have to go to the Ocean (Kadal). The Ocean won’t come to the drop. The Drop has to yearn. The Lower has to yearn. It has to be and stay a receiver. Only then it can attain the higher. Filled with knowledge, how can you receive it? You will only give! Only in melting, Bhakti, Kalandhu Kariandhu Kanamal Podhal will happen (dissolving and disappearing).
What is God’s Form?
God’s form is Love. For him to come, you have to approach him with Love. If two people approach God, one with Love and the other with Knowledge, TOP PRIORITY will be given to Love, by Him. This is my message. Everyone, by all means, wants only one thing in the end: Happiness. How can it be attained? By Love. If you Love God, Happiness will follow you automatically. But if you love happiness it will lead to expectation and soon frustration and selfishness. So Love God.
Directly you cannot go to Happiness, but that’s what we are ALL doing. So give your total love to God, the Supreme Power, Guru. Your selfishness will go and what comes? Happiness i.e. Losing your individuality leads to Happiness. The love you show God/Guru, He multiplies it N Fold and returns it to you as Happiness!
