"The ocean is vast and boundless. But the amount of water you can carry from it is determined by
the size of the vessel you take. If the vessel you carry is small, you cannot fill it beyond its
capacity. Likewise, if your heart is constricted, Divine grace will be equally limited. Broaden
your heart and receive the plenitude of God's grace.
How is one to broaden his heart? It is by getting rid of narrow differences and by curbing desires.
By developing insatiable desires, the heart gets shrunk. A broad heart means recognising the
truth that the Divine dwells in everybody. Only then can you obtain the Reality that is
unchanging and eternal."
~ Sri Sathya Sai Baba ~
(Divine Discourse in the Poornachandra Auditorium on 23-2-1990, Sivarathri Day)
