What should we do to purify the heart and make it worthy to receive divine grace? Bhagawan lovingly reminds us today.

All religions have laid stress on purity of heart. They have also declared that without a pure heart all spiritual exercises are valueless. How can purity of heart be realised if the mind is filled with egoism? The body can be cleaned with water. But the heart can be cleaned only by chanting the Lord's name. Prahlada, who was the son of an asura (demon king), Jatayu, a bird, and an animal like Gajendra, the lord of the elephants, redeemed themselves by relying on the Lord's name. As long as one is filled with ego and relies on one’s own strength, the benefit of the Lord's grace will not come to him. It is only when Gajendra declared that he knew no one other than God who could save him here or in the hereafter that the Lord rushed to his rescue.
