From your point of view, an object may appear to be inert, but from the Vedic point of view, everything is Chaitanya (filled with consciousness). One may question if Chaitanya is all-pervasive, why is it not visible to the naked eye? You are all well aware of the fact that there is butter in every drop of milk. Can you deny its existence merely because it is not visible to the naked eye? The process of obtaining butter involves curdling the milk and then churning it. Man is unable to perceive this Chaitanya principle because of two defects: 1. He overlooks his innumerable mistakes; and 2. He magnifies the minutest mistake of others. One can attain divinity only when he stops hiding his mistakes and highlighting the faults of others. When these two flaws are removed from the heart, one verily becomes the embodiment of Divinity. It is a great sin to search for others’ faults. Instead, look for your own. Consider your smallest defect as a great blunder and try to rectify the same. Ignore the faults in others, however big they may be. Do not criticise others; instead, criticise and question yourself – Is this the way I should behave, having been born as a human being? True spiritual practice lies in finding out one’s own mistakes and correcting them. - Divine Discourse Mar 12, 2002
