The honey in the flower or lotus does not crave for bees; they do not plead with the bees to come. Since they have tasted the sweetness, they themselves search for the flowers and rush in. They come because of the attachment between themselves and sweetness. So, too, is the relationship between the woman who knows the limits and the respect she evokes.
Sathya Sai BabaFirst comes Self-confiยญdence, that is the foundation. Then comes Self-satisยญfaction, it is like the wall. Next comes self-sacrifice, it is like the roof. Finally the house is complete and the Indweller is installed inside; that is Self-realizaยญtion. It starts with Self-confidence and it ends with realizing the Self.
