" In the most troublous times, what keeps you going
and instils fresh energy and enthusiasm, is
nothing but implicit Faith in the Divine "
(Spring Leaves by KMG )
Faith is a very potent force. A perennial fountain of hope and courage. It imparts strength and fortitude in facing life's problems. And when we say 'Faith', it is not referring to blind faith devoid of reason, but a positive and dynamic attitude, a mental tune up, as a pillar of support. In this connection, there can be no better revelation than Geeta itself, in Lord's own Words:
" Do all thou dost for Me ! renounce for Me !
Sacrifice heart and mind and will to Me !
Live in faith of Me ! In faith of Me,
All dangers thou shalt vanquish by My grace " (18 - 57,58)
" - - - Whereso any doeth all his deeds
Renouncing self for Me, full of Me, fixed
To serve only the Highest, night and day
Musing on Me --- him will I swiftly lift
Forth from life's ocean of distress and death -- " ( 12 - 6,7 )
" - - - Faith, yea, a little Faith --
Shall save thee from the anguish of thy dread. " ( 2 - 40 )
" - - - And let go those
Rites and writ duties ! Fly to Me alone !
Make Me thy single Refuge ! I will free
Thy soul from all its sins ! be of good cheer. " ( 18 - 66 )
Now, a poem of mine dealing with Faith :
TEST OF FAITH
If thy Faith doth not give thee
Courage in thy moments of fear,
If thy Faith doth not kindle
Hope in thy moments of despair,
If thy Faith doth not impart
Strength in thy moments of weakness,
If thy Faith tempers thee not with wisdom,
In moments demanding judgement or decision,
If thy Faith inspires not love in thee
When thou overcome with hatred or jealousy,
If thy faith doth not light up
Thy path in moments of utter darkness,
If thy Faith doth not shield thee
Against the cruel arrows of misfortune,
Then alas, thy Faith is shallow.
Pray Him for deeper Faith "
Well, that's something regarding the Elixir of Faith in the Supreme Power, the Divine Principle that is Omnipresent, Omniscient and Omnipotent !
and instils fresh energy and enthusiasm, is
nothing but implicit Faith in the Divine "
