Make your heart big, broad and pure, so that God and His entire family (including saints and followers) will lovingly come and reside permanently in that heart. This connotes the acceptance of what is immortal and rejection of mortal. Whoever does not get entangled in what is transitory, will be able to turn fast towards the o eternal and within a short time will achieve the highest immortality.
Look at the glory of good thoughts, love and generosity ! There is neither any difficulty nor any problem in accepting them. All that is needed is true dedication and an enlightened guide. Let us all move definitively in the direction of immortality with the good religious company right from today. Let us turn our sights away from mortality and blow the bulge of victory - march for true greatness. Be Victor.
