Be a Big Fish
Dada Sarvabodhananda

Baba asked me, my boy have you seen a big fish. I said, yes Baba. Then Baba
said, you know, a small fish lives in the shallow water and makes a lot of
noise blab, blab, blab, blab.. but a big fish lives in the deep part of the
ocean and moves with great speed with out noise. Baba paused allowing us to
follow what He was driving at. Then His vibes changed from sweet to serious.
He looked us directly from one corner to the other with such intensity that
I felt almost bursting with energy. Then He said, similarly in our society today
there are many people who knows very little but make a lot of noises, especially
politicians!. But those who understand a little bit of the Truth, who love humanity,
work silently with incredible speed and without noise.

Then Baba paused letting us absorbed the essence of the story. Then with His right
fore finger raised, directly looking at our eyes, He said, I want you all to become
a big fish, who lives in the deepest ocean within. One thing that you should never
forget to do, in whatever your situation will be, however difficult your problem is,
however great the obstacle is, to do your meditation regularly. To dive in that deepest
ocean within you because all the answers of all your questions, all the solutions of all
you problems lies in that ocean within... there you will find me...
I felt my whole being was saturated with incredible energy and inspiration
radiating from Baba.
