Be simple and sincere.
It is sheer waste of money
to burden the pictures and idols
in the shrines and altars of your homes
with a weight of garlands, and to parade
costly utensils and vessels and offerings,
to show off your devotion.
This is deception; it demeans Divinity,
imputing to it the desire for pomp and publicity.
I ask only for purity of heart, to shower Grace.
Do not posit distance between you and Me;
do not interpose the formalities of the
Preceptor-disciple relationship,
or even the altitudinal distinctions of
the God-Devotee relationship, between you and Me.
I am neither Guru nor God; I am You;
You are I; that is the Truth. There is no distinction.
That which appears so is the delusion.
You are waves; I am the Ocean. Know this and be free, be Divine.
from a divine source...
