wonders" which cannot be explained by the categories of science, are<br />

so natural to me that I am amused when you label them as miracles.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Lord had announced that he would come down for the restoration<br />

of righteousness <strong>and</strong> that he would assume human form so that all<br />

might gather round him <strong>and</strong> feel the thrill of his companionship <strong>and</strong><br />

conversation. And the Lord has come, as announced.<br />

For those who are drawn by the pulls of the mind, the intellect <strong>and</strong> the<br />

ego, things beyond the ken of these three are inscrutable; there is a<br />

limit beyond which the mind <strong>and</strong> the intellect cannot traverse. That is<br />

why the Supreme power has to envelop itself with delusion <strong>and</strong> come<br />

down to the level of human comprehension. 22.1.60, (15-153)<br />

All hearts are his property, it is all his domain. (...) <strong>The</strong> Lord will install<br />

himself only if the heart is cleansed. <strong>The</strong> Lord has said that: "Where<br />

my devotees sing of me, there I install myself.” I must tell you that you<br />

are luckier than men of previous generations. <strong>The</strong> accumulated merit<br />

<strong>and</strong> become sweet <strong>and</strong> tasty. 27.9.60, (15-178)<br />

Some persons have said in their ignorance that I am Divine sometimes<br />

<strong>and</strong> that I become human after that! <strong>The</strong>y say I alternate between Divinity<br />

<strong>and</strong> human. Do not believe this. I am always of one reality only.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Lord will never undergo a fundamental change; only the external<br />

form may change, the essence will be the same. <strong>The</strong>re will not be any<br />

decline in value, like becoming human for some time, etc. <strong>The</strong> Lord will<br />

be characterised by unbounded love <strong>and</strong> unsullied sweetness.<br />

29.9.60, (15-183)<br />

<strong>Sathya</strong> is the righteousness, love gives peace. I comm<strong>and</strong> you: never<br />

hate others, or wish evil to them or talk ill of them. <strong>The</strong>n only can you<br />

attain the natural form of peace.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Lord alone is aware of the plan, for his is the plan! You see only<br />
