and deaf, this hurts. That's why these theories have appeal. Twenty four only, ten only, one only: that is a great consolation to you, remember. That means if you have not found the Perfect Master, what can you do? It is not your responsibility. Only once in a while the Perfect Master happens, and this time he is not here. It is not your fault that you have not found him. If anybody is at fault it is God, not you. You are relieved.
I say to you: Perfect Masters are always available -- just as roses are always available and lotuses are always available. And the sun rises EVERY morning, and there are millions of stars ALWAYS available. You just have to open your eyes, you have not to be blind.
But our situation is really in bad shape. I was reading a story -- this is the story of you:
A woman had just had a child but had not yet seen it. She asked the doctor that it be brought to her, but he did not comply:
"I am afraid it would not be a good idea for you to see him right now."
But as she insisted passionately, he began to justify his refusal:
"You see, Madam, through a most unfortunate accident of fate, your child was born abnormally, and I feel it would be good for you to recover fully from the delivery before seeing your child."
"TELL me doctor!! I must know what has happened!!! I must see my child."
The doctor, wishing to spare her the sight of her child, ventured to explain to her the nature of the deformity: "I will be blunt, Madam. Your child has no legs!"
She gasped, but recovering from the blow, she composed herself and asked to see the child.
"Madam, wishing to spare you the naked truth, I have omitted to tell you the whole situation... your child has neither legs nor arms."
"Doctor," she cried, "bring me my child. He will have my legs and my arms. I MUST see him."
"I see," he replied, "I must be even more cruel -- your child has no torso either."
"No legs! no arms! no torso!! " she sobbed. "Bring him to me. He needs me all the more."
The doctor finally conceded and brought her the baby. She started as she saw IT. Wrapped in a towel was a foot long ear.
