it's whisper can be heard

 




Grace is always present. You imagine it is somewhere high in the sky,
far away, and has to descend. It is really inside you, in your Heart.
Grace is the Self. . . .You are never out of its operation.


-~ Sri Ramana Maharshi


 Grace is a manifestation of the cosmic free will in operation. 
It can alter the course of events in a mysterious manner
 through its own unknown laws, which are superior to
 all natural laws, and can modify the latter by interaction.

It is the most powerful force in the universe.

It descends and acts only when it is invoked 
by total self- surrender. 

It acts from within, because God resides in the Heart
 of all beings. Its whisper can be heard only in a mind
 purified by self-surrender and prayer.

Rationalists laugh at it, and atheists scorn it, but it exists.
 It is a descent of God into the soul’s zone of awareness. 
It is a visitation of force unexpected and unpredictable.
 It is a voice spoken out of cosmic silence - 
It is ‘Cosmic Will which can perform 
authentic miracles under its own laws’.
