The Gift Of Faith 

When I address youth meets or have a question-answer session with students, I am often asked this question: what is the one gift that you would ask of God if He were to appear before you and grant you a single boon? Never mind what I would ask: if such a happy event were to befall you, I would strongly urge you to ask God for the great gift of faith!

Faith Sustains All

Faith is the spirit that sustains life. Faith is the ray of sunshine that lights up the dark, deep caverns of the human heart. Faith is the elixir of the soul. Faith is the beautiful, fragrant flower that blooms even in the wilderness of despair and suffering. Faith is the one true source of support on which we can always rely in the thorough and tough journey called life upon this earth. Faith is the sustenance for all human endeavours. It is the greatest blessing that God can bestow upon us!

The Fig Tree

A man may be affluent and possess enough material wealth to leave for his future generations; he may be in the enjoyment of ‘the boast of heraldry, the pomp of power,’ as poet Thomas Grey puts it. But, let me tell you, if he lacks faith, his wealth and power are nothing; indeed, he is no better than a man afflicted with utter poverty - poverty of the spirit! On the other hand, a man may not possess much, he may be poor in the wealth of this world, but if he has faith in God, then he is, indeed, a fortunate soul, who lacks nothing.

Om Namah Shivay.
