SPECIAL PERSONALITY
THE LIGHT BURNS ON
There have been numerous saints, sages and teachers in the world who did something or the other for the upliftment of the people. They spread the light among people in general but they were all like candles lighted up at times at particular places to give light to the people near about. They did good to the people who thereby improved spiritually. But the Divine lamp gets lit to light up the whole world at one time on rare occasions only, when God so ordains it.
It has already come down and is aglow all around, but few seem to be really eager for it. The enshrouding darkness has completely engulfed the world so heavily that the glimmer of this Divine Light is yet beyond their view. This is a natural phenomenon which has come into action several times before in the period of the world's existence. Whenever evil reaches its climax, some such Divine Soul does come down into the world to dispel the clouds of darkness and to spread light all through.
