Your Gifts

By Harold Klemp

“Truth, goodness, love, and beauty are commonly regarded as poetic ideas, but they are, in essence, spiritual facts. These are the ideas which one should include in his speech and thoughts. They are the language of Soul and must bring about an awakening of that pervading, persuasive urge in man to realize himself in his totality, as a being essentially spiritual and eternal. Truth as given by the ECK is neither esoteric, strange, nor fanciful. It is at once sublime, universal, and profoundly practical.”

—The Shariyat-Ki-Sugmad, Book Two, p. 193

 

Read this passage aloud to yourself.

Today the Master will guide you to give gifts of truth, goodness, love, or beauty to others.

In contemplation, sing seva (see-VAH) for several minutes. It is a spiritual word that means a service of love, and it will open your heart to the giving nature of Soul.

Reflect on this exercise at the end of your day. Begin by singing seva again, and follow the Mahanta‘s footprints as you retrace your day.
