Purpose

Today I share with you a sketch I made in class. Our teacher had asked us to depict the protecting and the attacking nature of the chestnuts she had brought with her. While it was immediately obvious to me, that the chestnuts had long menacing spikes (that actually hurt on touch) and soft fleshy layers protecting the nut on the inside, the marvelous simplicity of the evolution of the chestnut eluded me for a while.
The precise manner in which the nuts split, the time and temperature at which they do so, are all programmed for the propagation of life through this humble chestnut. There is a Divine Intelligence that orchestrates these events.
Similarly, this Divine Intelligence exists in each of us too, in every living cell. All we have to do is to allow ourselves to be guided by this Intelligence. It is written: You are God's temple. It is our prime duty to care of this temple. There is a purpose to everything.
​Much light!
