Sree Krishna, the Lord of Love

Krishna (Hindu deity)
Poor and ignorant is the man who seeketh for that which he hath and
knoweth it not. Poor and ignorant is the man who knoweth not the
nobility of my Love that surroundeth him, with which I crowned him
withal.
* *
O my children! in your midst My well beloved one doth walk. Mark, freely
all his love he giveth, gladly of My Love receiveth, and the measure of
his sweetness doth he give to overflowing unto all that near him come.
Lo! he knoweth my Love is flowing into him that largely giveth of the
Love I do bestow. Within your midst in every heart I am, unknown, till
by a touch of pain in struggle great you brush against My wide white
wings. Then thrilled and amazed you look into Mine eyes and know that I
am and ever have been and ever must be.
* *
The hand of My Love has gone from My Abode and scattered into space,
giving unto all that will receive. Unto each child of Mine blessings I
have given; ofttimes in their blindness they saw it not. But few there
are who raise the gifts that He in great profusion at their feet. More
are those who turn their eyes in wilful waywardness from them and with
yearning cry do wail for that which I have crowned them withal. Most of
my own do amble on, defiantly denying that such gifts there are, denying
Me, the Giver of all gifts denying Me, the Author of their being.
* *
The few who raise My gifts and make them as their own and making them as
their own thus, do give them forth to those their hungering neighbors,
unto them do I scatter more than they in ease can carry, for he who
giveth forth receiveth ever largely of the store I hold for them. He who
hungers to feed the heart of those he meets along his way, unto him
shall be given the wherewithal to satisfy their hunger.
* *
O my child! what mattereth it who speaketh the word of love, of truth,
of courage and life unto thy heart? Whether thou dost catch it from the
song of birds, from the lips of a babe, from the glad tone in a maid or
the shout in a frolicsome boy? Whether it comes from the heart of him
who hath given all to know Me and to reflect Me in thine heart, or
whether it came from the spirit all bright as he hovered about to find
thee a way when thou didst grope in the wilderness of doubt and amaze of
worldly turmoil? Take thou the truth from wherever it comes, for truth
that is real finds its root in Me and no matter how slender and lean the
twig may be, it is the shoot that has sprung from My Root.
* *
Glory to Gooroo whose wisdom is as silver is! Glory to Gooroo! who by
his love and wisdom illumineth the hearts that seek after Me. His day
and his waking, his night and his slumber I with My Love will preserve.
