Bowl of Saki for February 11    (42)


Complement

This is very important. Sages all extol the value of indifference. This indifference comes with awakened heart. Many people are indifferent in the sense of being callous. Nothing moves them, they are like sticks or stones. That is not indifference, that is sloth; that shows the soul is asleep, there is no love, there is no God-vitality.

Now the sage is very different, who knows through his own experience the value and the lack of value in attachment, friendship, emotion and all the vicissitudes of life. He surrenders all these forms of clinging, he no longer clings to anything and he makes an actual surrender. That shows the Divine Indifference.
