Spend your time in the contemplation of the beauties of Nature that are spread out before you in the earth and sky. Enjoy the green expanses of the crops, cool breezes that waft contentment and joy, the panorama of coloured clouds, the music of the birds, etc. Sing the glory of God as you walk in Nature, along the bunds of the fields and the banks of the canals. Avoid polluting the air with vengeful boasts. Do not spend time in hateful talks when you see God has created such wonderful evidences of love! Living in these placid surroundings, you should not disturb the sky with your shouts and curses. Any seed needs water and manure to grow and yield a rich harvest. So too, the tiny sapling of spiritual yearning for liberation from bondage also needs water and manure. Just a wise farmer will care for his crops dearly, you must take care of your habits to reap the harvest of liberation.- Divine Discourse, Sep 2, 1958.Cool comforting conversation, is always most congenial. This habit alone will lead you to your goal. - Baba
