Prasad
The ocean of grace is found within, not through external search. Prasāda is the divine blessing present in remembrance, a name, or a feeling, which manifests the five elements within the body. Do not search elsewhere, for what you seek is your own inner property. The tradition is like a great, ancient river; all small streams must flow into it. An individual is a drop that originated from the ocean and must return to it to merge and become the ocean itself. This merging is the true union, unlike merely attending ceremonies without becoming part of them.
"All that we search for, do not search anywhere. That is the neighbor’s property, not yours."
"When this drop falls into the ocean, it becomes the ocean. No more drop, no clouds, nothing—only again the ocean."
