Take off with Natarajan

A ‘devotee’ wrote a letter to the editor of an Indian newspaper and complained that it made no sense to go to the Temple . “I’ve gone for 30 years now, he wrote, and in that time I have heard something like 3,000 mantras. 
But for the life of me, I can’t remember a single one of them. So, I think I’m wasting my time and the Gurus are wasting theirs by giving services at all.” 

This started a real controversy in the ‘Letters to the Editor’ column, much to the delight of the editor. It went on for weeks until someone wrote this clincher:“I’ve been married for 30 years now. In that time my wife has cooked some 32,000 meals.

But, for the life of me, I cannot recall the entire menu for a single one of those meals. But I do know this… They all nourished me and gave me the strength I needed to do my work.
If my wife had not given me these meals, I would be physically dead today. Likewise, if I had not gone to the Temple for nourishment, I would be spiritually dead today!

A physician gives me medicines. I do not know what is in it I definitely do not know ‘how’ it is curing my illness. I have faith in the physician. My faith and the power of the medicine of the physician makes me well. I do not know ‘how’ but I know it ‘does’.”
.
Faith sees the invisible, believes the incredible and
receives the impossible!

Thank God for our physical AND our spiritual  nourishment!!!!
