Anandamurti starts the discourse by saying that all entities, regardless of their size or nature are equally loved and cared for by [[Parama Purusa]]. He then explains the shloka, ''Sama pluśina sama mashakena sama nágena samaebhistribhirlokaeh''. A tiny mosquito is as significant for Him as a big mammoth, and He regards the three realms as equally significant. Anandamurti goes on comparing the Supreme Consciousness to a lamp, lightning a stage. In every condition, active or suspended, dormant or lively, He is always with us. Therefore we should never feel alone or become pessimistic.<ref name="AV2"/> | |||
