1989-08-08 bandhan (Shri Ganesha Puja, Les Diablerets, Switzerland)

...Now when you give bandhan, what you do is to put the Chaitanya into action, “Now act here, act there, act here.” Though you are, supposing, in the ocean, but the ocean acts on you all the time. You cannot act on the ocean, you cannot ask water to do this and do that. But as realized souls, you are empowered, now you can ask water, “Alright, you dissolve this, you do this, you do that.”...
