BALANCED EXISTENCE AND STAGES OF PROGRESS
small speck in that, a bubble, at any time it can be pricked and it is lost. When a bubble looses its existence it is a mystery. Not all the bubbles created by you in the soap water, die at the same time. Some live longer some live shorter. Similar is the existence here. We come to know this. We understand that we should work for permanent values and not self interest values. These things will not work once yielding develops.
The next thing that develops in us is a sense of non-attachment. We know the transitoriness of the existence of others also and then we automatically tend to be non-attached. It doesn't mean that we don't love them. We do love them. We have got enormous concern for them. We would like to pray for them also, all that is right and just and is due attachment. But to say that the other person is inevitable for existence is just stupidity. There is only one thing that is inevitable for existence, that is Divinity. Divinity is the closest friend we have got. A friend who came along with us and a person who is going to continue after we pass out of this mortal coil. The company of the Divine with which we are born is something that is permanent.
