You toiled hard, earned money, and deposited it in a bank for safety and security. No doubt that money belongs to you, but the Bank Manager will not give it to you on your mere asking for it. There are certain rules and regulations for the withdrawal of money from the bank. You can withdraw the money only when you sign the cheque and surrender it to the Bank Manager. Likewise, you have deposited the ‘money’ of meritorious deeds with God, the Divine Bank Manager. Though God is the embodiment of sacrifice, and the money belongs to you, there is a proper procedure to get it. God is the Manager of the Bank of Love. You have deposited your money in His bank. In order to withdraw money from this bank, you have to submit the cheque of sacrifice with the signature of love. Anything may happen, but your love for God should not change. Only through such love can you follow the path of sacrifice and withdraw ‘money’ from the Divine Bank. Here ‘money’ does not mean currency notes. It is the ‘money’ of grace, wisdom, and righteousness. – Divine Discourse, May 07, 2001.
