Question: What does the Supreme think of spare parts for the human body?
Guru: According to the Supreme, the real spare parts for the human body are a bending mind, a willing vital, an aspiring body and a self-giving heart. When these parts do not function well, or when they actually stop functioning, if so is the Will of the ever Compassionate Supreme, He can grant the human body a new bending mind, a new willing vital, a new aspiring body and a new self-giving heart to replace the old, meaningless and useless body, vital, mind and heart.The Supreme in the seeker, if he is a sincere seeker, will never accept a defeat in the seeker. He invariably will supply the seeker again and again with the needful so that the seeker can attain the supreme victory by establishing his permanent oneness with the Supreme’s earth-reality and Heaven-Vision.
