The stone will melt
A spiritual discourse and bhajan session on realizing the self as the infinite sky.
"Until we do not achieve that sky, we have not achieved. And that achievement is that it is very easy and very difficult."
"One who has some kind of doubt is like a stone. We would like to have the stone in a nice way, but it is not."
A spiritual teacher addresses a gathering, using the metaphor of the sky to describe the pure, limitless Self (Ātmā). He explains that doubt hardens the heart like a stone, preventing merger with this divine reality, and urges listeners to melt their inner rigidity through surrender and devotion. The discourse references saints like Mahāprabhujī and includes the singing of a lengthy, devotional bhajan that celebrates the Guru as the Soul of all moving and non-moving creation.
