Words from the Master

You express your gratitude with words because you are egoistic and you don’t want people to think you lack courtesy. The moment you express it, you belittle or falsify it.

Actually, your very body language can convey the state of gratitude in you. Your eyes can convey it, your smile can convey it, your warmth can convey it much better than words. Tears of gratitude express it better than anything else. When you are overwhelmed, when you are brimming, tears overflow.

I am not asking you to cry! I am only telling you that when you overflow, your body will show it, you cannot hide it, and that is the real indication of the state of your Being.

And remember, these tears don’t belong to any caste or creed or religion. They cannot be classified as Hindu tears or Muslim tears; these tears don’t belong to any religion. They belong to the Being and the Being is beyond all this. Gratitude is one thing that can dissolve all man-made barriers and conditionings; that is why it is the ultimate prayer.
