The Essence of Self-Realization

Inspiration from Yogananda
The Baby Devotee Cries

“The Divine Mother is busy with Her housework of creation. The baby devotee cries, and She gives him a toy to play with – riches, perhaps, or name, or fame. If he cries again, She gives him another toy. But if the baby throws everything away and cries for Her love alone, She picks him up at last and whispers to him lovingly, ‘If you really want only Me, and not My gifts, then come. Be with Me forever on my lap of infinity.’”
