Essence
An Essence
A little girl and her father were crossing a bridge. The father was kind of scared. So he asked his little daughter, “Sweetheart, Please hold my hand so that you don’t fall into the river.” The little girl said, “No, Father. You hold my hand.
“What is the difference?” asked the puzzled father.
“There is a big difference,” replied the girl. “If I hold your hand and anything happens to me, chances are that I may let your hand go. But then, if you hold my hand, I know for sure that no matter what happens, you will never let my hand go.” I will be safe.
All of us wish to walk the path of life, holding Baba’s hand. But when difficulties occur, we might stumble and lose the hold. SO let us pray to Baba here and now that HE should rather hold our hand forever, for then we will be safe on every bridge of life. Even if we stumble and falter, He will be there with us always. All we need to do here is to stretch out our hand to our SADGURU with love and intense trust in eyes and with the Heart of a Toddler. For the essence of trust is not in its bind, but in its bond.
