Adore the God that is resident in all, motivating them and prompting their every activity.
Ekanath, the Maharasthra saint, had that vision. He was going on a pilgrimage to Rameswaram, in the extreme south of India, from Varanasi in the north, carrying the sacred Ganga in a pot, to be poured ceremoniously on the Ramalingeswara idol at the palace. His disciples were with him.
On the way, he saw a donkey dying of thirst and in great agony. Ekanath felt that the Ramalingeswara in the donkey was calling out for the holy Ganga that he was carrying on his shoulder. In spite of the protests of his followers, he poured the precious Ganga down the throat of the dying animal and saved it.
His joy knew no bounds. God is the seed of all this manifested universe.
