With the sense of possession comes selfishness,
and selfishness brings on misery.

God is one who can alter the destiny of people
How to recognize God when he assumes a human form?
Vivekananda: God is one who can alter the destiny of people. No sâdhu, however advanced, can claim this unique position. I don't see anyone who truly recognizes Ramakrishna as God. We sometimes feel it hazily, that is all. To realize Ramakrishna as God and yet be attached to the world is inconsistent.
