| Quotations from Adi Granth :MIRACLES |
|
|
1. (If the Lord Wills), He may make the tigers and hawks
and kites and falcons eat grass. 2. If I clothed myself with fire, and abided in the house
of snow and chewed iron for my feed, 3. If the Lord grants power to a mere ant, She can destroy
myriads of hosts. 4. One practises many postures, like a Siddha, but one's
mind craves to possess extra-psychic powers. 5. To work miracles is vain, an empty show. (Japu, M. 1) 6. To crave for the world's treasures, or to become a miracle-man is vain.For, thiswise, we break not off (the chains of) Desire, and the Lord's Name abides not in our mind. (Var, Vadhans, M. 3) 7. Without the Lord's Name, all miracls, all extra-psychic powers, all eats and wears, are of no consequence. That alone is a miracle which the Lord of Himself blesses us with. (Var, Sorath, M. 3) 8. Nanak, call that a miracle Which the Lord graciously
bestows. 9. When the Lord gives unexpectedly,It is called a miracle. 10. The desire to possess miraculous powers is a false
attachment, It keeps out the love of Nam from the heart. |
