Everything has energy latent in it - a piece of paper has it, a strip of cloth has it. When the latent energy is exhausted, death results; when energy fills, birth happens. Sath-Chith-Ananda is energy. Energy is all and energy is derived from God. That is the very basis of man. Now, we are building superstructures somewhere else, not on this basis. The foundational Divine Principle is being ignored. We are fascinated by subjects and studies that promise to feed our stomachs and make us materially happy and powerful. But the hard truth is the Divine underlying everything. Man must either know the supreme truth of the One Being behind all Becoming or at least know the practical truth of love and brotherhood.
