IMPLICIT FAITH IS THE ROAD TO SPIRITUAL SUCCESS

IMPLICIT FAITH IS THE ROAD TO SPIRITUAL SUCCESS

Once, Krishna and Arjuna were going together along the open road. Seeing a bird in the sky, Krishna asked Arjuna,” Is that a Dove?” He replied,” Yes, it is a Dove.” He told Arjuna, “It is an Eagle.” Arjuna replied promptly, “Yes, it is an Eagle.” “No, Arjuna, it looks like a crow to Me. Is it not a crow?” asked Krishna. Arjuna replied, “I am sorry, it is a crow beyond doubt.”

Krishna laughed and chided him for his agreeing to whatever suggestion was given. But Arjuna said, “For me, Your Words are far weightier than the evidence of my eyes; you can make it crow, a dove or an eagle and when you say it is a crow, it must be one.”
