THINK OF GOD
This text was machine-transcribed from the printed book and may contain errors. Select the words and choose “Report a mistake”.
Throughout the day, how many times do we think of God? Maybe before a meal, or before going to bed. Otherwise, it is only when we face some problem, that we think of God! But how many times do we think of some film actress or actor? Everything in the newspapers, on television or on the internet is about something with which we are not really connected.
Out of thousands of thoughts, less than one percent is probably related to God. Everything else is related to something external. Please listen, every thought is energy and we waste more than ninety nine percent of our energy on something that is not really needed for us. If we can channel this energy to look inward, to see the source of our existence, we explore a new dimension of our Self. We are ready to do anything other than think about God or our Self. Why? We think it is a waste of time. We always make business plans.

THOUGHTS
We do something only if we feel
we will get something from it. But
if we analyze our thoughts carefully,
we are not thinking of anything
productive. Our thoughts are
simply completely illogical.
Most of the time, we justify
ourselves when someone asks us to
think of God. We say, ‘Why think
of God? What will we get? I have
better things to think about like
work and my studies.’ However
these are mere justifications. If we
sit and write down our thoughts,
we will see that we are not
thinking about work or anything
productive. Our thoughts are
completely illogical and random.
