By the Grace of God the dumb sings with ease, the lame dances with felicity, the blind sees with precision and the rustic becomes a rishi.
Kalidas initially was but a fool. He was cutting the very branch on which he was standing. By the grace of Mother Kali he became a great poet.
Among the disciples of Sri Ramakrishna, there was one illiterate. He became a great sadhu and realized soul by divine grace. He is our beloved Latu Maharaj [Swami Adbhutanandaji Maharaj]. Ratnakar was a dacoit. By God's grace he became Sage Valmiki. Similarly in history and legend we find many a person rising to great heights.
God in his infinite generosity gives Buddhi and makes dullards also shine resplendent. We are only to stand and wait worshipping the Lord through the discharge of our duties.
"Everything can be achieved through bhakti alone. Those -who want the Knowledge of Brahman will certainly achieve that also by following the trial of bhakti.Can a man blessed with the grace of God ever lack Knowledge? At Kamarpukur I have seen grain-dealers measuring paddy. As one heap is measured away another heap is pushed forward to be measured. The Mother supplies the devotees with the 'heap' of Knowledge.
After attaining God, one looks on a pundit as mere straw and dust. "Everything can be realized simply through love of God. If one is able to love God, one does not lack anything."--- Sri Ramakrishna
