Innocence of Children

The greatest sympathy comes when innocence is being challenged. All human beings have within themselves this power, which gives you that feeling, that capacity and understanding that you have to protect innocent children or even innocent people. And the whole world can rise against all such people who are trying in any way harm or destroy the innocent.

Even the highest personality can sacrifice anything and can give up anything, but cannot give up the feeling they have for innocence. It’s a very remarkable thing. We don’t realize how much there is this ocean of protection and love for the innocent. What attracts the greatest strength is when we see an innocent person or a child is under attack.

It is like a rock that is not prevailed by any ocean of anger or any kind of revenge. It’s the rock that is being looked after and nourished by Shri Ganesha the presiding deity of our first energy center called Mooladhara Chakra.

Through Sahaja Yoga one can easily prove that the innocence within us can never get destroyed. It is very surprising to find out that every human being has this innate quality built in within them. You may be a sinner or a very cruel person, you might be anything: but this innate quality of innocence does not get destroyed. It is like a secret thing that is put in us at the time of formation of fetus in the mother's womb .

Sometimes people for example think that they can be-fooled others by their tricky nature. .But on the contrary this tricky nature does not give them any satisfaction. In fact when you try to trick someone, this trick works on you, it is repelled on you, and destroys your faith in innocence – which is the greatest faith, the greatest help or the greatest power on this earth.

Those people who do not respect their innocence because they think it makes you weak, have not seen the power of innocence – how it works, how it acts. From all over the world, it reacts. But, so far, I think the human beings are not conscious of the power of innocence. But it is the highest thing to be innocent. And it acts as if the whole understanding, whole working-out of the being is so beautifully achieved.
