A TRUE DEVOTEE'S FAITH

OMCT, while going to Kamarpukur, I was
overtaken by a storm. I was in the middle of a big
meadow. The place was haunted by robbers. I
began to repeat the names of all the deities: Rama,
Krishna and Bhagavati. I also repeated the name of
Hanuman. I chanted the names of them all.
What does that mean? Let me tell you. While the
servant is counting out the money to purchase
supplies, he says, "These pennies for potatoes,
these for egg plants, these for fish." He counts the
money separately, but after the list is completed, he
puts the coins together.
Is there anything impossible for faith? And a true
devotee has faith in everything: the formless
Reality, God with form, Rama, Krishna and the
Divine Mother.
