What is the destiny of Man?
Chidananda about this says:
"Take a little bud on the branch of a flower plant. It looks very insignificant and you don't know what is hidden in it. But if only you had some eyes, you would be able to see the tremendous dynamism and the principle of evolution at work- forming the softness of the petals, the delicate colours, the power of attraction, the fragance, day and night is going on.
The bud grows and slowly the inner beauty begins to make itself felt.
If only someone would take a video of the entire life of a bud until it becomes a fully unfolded flower, what a marvel it would be!
It would be the answer to your question "What is the destiny of this thing?" The destiny is to reach a stage where it shines as a complete perfect unit of its own species, filled with beauty, filled with fragance, filled with the power of attraction- attracting man, woman, child, bee and bird, everything around it, wafting its fragance, shining with colour, softness of velvety and silky petals -a thing of beauty, of joy.
And a little while ago it was just a bud. "
