Paramahansa Yogananda, Solving the Mystery of Life

 Love and devotion for God is something I can talk about day and night and never end. It is something very intoxicating, very solacing. The Lord says, I can give you salvation if you make the effort; but I cannot give My love and devotion, for if I give that away I become This is the treasure of God, His very essence. It is so all-fulfilling; He has naught else of worth, in comparison, to give. He has, veritably, given Himself.

God has given to you the blessedness of belonging to Him always. You have only to realize that. He feels insulted when you base your relationship with Him on prayers for money or fulfillment of material desires. Why make prosperity your utmost goal, for it will seek you when you seek God. There is not a need or wish that God hasn’t satisfied for me. And I do not have to ask. You should pray only for one thing: that you may be with Him always. When you have prayed for that, you have prayed for everything else.
