Reminiscences

Replying to a doctor's question ShriMaharaj said, "If the bodies of a saint and another person were to be dis­sected, not much difference will be observed, for both bod­ies are formed of the basic elements. The difference is in the mind; the mind of ordinary persons is totally oriented towards the bodily self and worldly matters; while a saints's mind is totally oriented towards God, towards the eternal. If one acquires a penetrating vision by practising a great deal of namasmarana, by the resultant subtleness of the mind one can easily know the leanings of another's mind; that is, one can recongnize a saint. So, please prac­tise namasmarana a lot.'
