Knowledge forever

KARMA Strange are the ways of Karma. The more you understand it, the more amazed you become. It brings people together and separates them. It causes some to be weak and some to be strong. It makes some rich and some poor. All the struggle in the world, whatever it may be, is the bondage of Karma. It cuts across all logic and reasoning.

"Surrender is realizing that everything belongs to the Divine. 'I' am not in control - that is surrender. " How can we experience infinity? It is possible only through love. Love is the only thing you cannot think about. If you think about it, it ceases to be love. When thinking stops, love begins. Lovers talk silly things, they say the same things over and over again a thousand times. They are not thinking. Their reasoning mind is transcended. With whomsoever we fall in love, we are really falling in love with ourselves. The truth is that we do not realize it because we are caught up in the name and form, love is formless. Names and forms can kindle love in you, but then it takes you beyond the name and form to the true nature, which is pure energy. Surrender and love are synonymous. Whomsoever you love, you surrender to them. It's not a doing but a state of being when the mind is free of doubts and troubles. The word 'surrender' is frightening because we...
