The simple faith of a child :



When a man has true knowledge he feels that everything is filled with Consciousness.

At Kamarpukur I used to talk to Shibu, who was then a lad four or five years old.

When the clouds rumbled and lightning flashed, Shibu would say to me: 'There, uncle! They are striking matches again!' (all laugh)

One day I noticed him chasing grasshoppers by himself.

The leaves rustled in the near-by trees. 'Hush! Hush!' he said to the leaves.

'I want to catch the grasshoppers.'

He was a child and saw everything throbbing with consciousness.

One cannot realize God without the faith that knows no guile, the simple faith of a child.
