PEOPLE ARE SEARCHING FOR GREATNESS. But greatness does not come from acquiring wealth or an empire. GREATNESS COMES FROM BECOMING YOUR REAL SELF, bringing your potentiality to actualization. It may be a grass flower, it may not be a lotus but nature makes no difference. When the sun rises it does not dance longer on the lotus. It does not ignore a grass flower and say, Be out of the way, you untouchable, you person of a low caste !!!! I am here for the lotus flowers, the roses. When the rain comes it does not make any distinction, any discrimination; when the wind comes it makes no distinction, no discrimination. The real question is not whether you are a rose, or a lotus flower, or just an unnamed grass flower. The real thing is that the grass flower has come to actualize its potentiality, just as the rose flower has actualized its potentiality, just as the lotus flower has actualized its potentiality. THE REAL THING IS ACTUALIZATION OF THE SEED THAT YOU ARE CARRYING WITHIN YOU; that makes you great, and it is a greatness with a tremendous humbleness, with no ego in it. If your greatness has something of the ego, that means your greatness is not real actualization. You have fallen into a wrong path. You wanted to be a musician, but you have become an engineer. You may become a very great engineer, but something in you will remain tortured, your self will remain continuously in a misery. Out of that misery is all evil. You are therefore irritated, you are angry, you are jealous of others; because you are crippled, you cannot dance. Hence your jealousy. BUT NATURE HAS GIVEN TO YOU ALL SOME UNIQUE POTENTIALITY. That is your goodness. Bring it to flowering, to its ultimate growth. And you will be contented, and you will be grateful, and you will be humble. Humble before this vast existence, grateful because it has not sent you empty. It has sent you abundant potential to work upon. So, become your Real Self and enjoy Life to the fullest.
