All action is prayer. All trees are desire-fulfilli ng. All water is the Ganga. All land is Varanasi. Love everything.

It is not about mind-watching; but rather recognizing That which watches the mind.

I find one vast garden spread out all over the universe. All plants, all human beings, all higher mind bodies are about in this garden in various ways, each has his own uniqueness and beauty. Every one of you adds with his special feature to the glory of the garden.
