Pure Love Heals🔗

E nlightened Masters radiate Pure Love. Realized Masters shine with a divine energy that is hard for others to understand. Listen to this story from the life of a realized Master to get a peek at that love and its healing powers.

Sadashiva Brahmendra was one of the great saints of South India. He lived just like an innocent child, blissful and spontaneous.

One day he was walking with one of his devotees when the ruler of that territory, the Nawab, went riding by. The saint was in such deep ecstasy that he did not notice or pay respect to the Nawab.

This upset the Nawab. He was so angry that he cut off the saint's hand with a sword. Sadashiva Brahmendra walked on. He did not notice that his hand was gone. He just continued moving, experiencing the blissful Energy of his being.

The devotee was shocked when she saw this.

She cried, “O! Master! You have lost your hand for not showing courtesy to the Nawab.”

The saint was surprised and asked her to bring the hand to him. He held it to the wrist and it became whole again.

People were surprised at the miracle. The Master explained, “The Nawab's hatred destroyed my hand; the energy of Pure Existence healed it!”

If you love only yourself, you are alone. When you love only one other, then the two of you are alone. Love your family--your family is alone. Love only your nation--your nation is alone. There can be no unity, not even with yourself, except through the love of God.
