Today I had an unusual experience with a wasp at the gym. I go to the gym for about one hour in the morning before I go to work. And as I often do, I opened a window to let in some fresh air.
After I had been working out for a while, a big wasp suddenly flew into the room and kept circling me. In the past I would have tried to scare the wasp away or, if necessary, even kill it. This time, however, I simply said, inwardly, “Dear Mᴀʜᴀɴᴛᴀ, can you please show the wasp the way out of the room and back to freedom.” Lo and behold, the wasp flew straight back to the window and on into the open.
Honestly, I was very surprised and thought at first that it must have been a coincidence. But my request to the Mᴀʜᴀɴᴛᴀ was sincere and spontaneous. I concluded the ECK had gently whispered to the wasp that it was safer for it outside. ☺

God’s love extends equally to all creatures—human, animal, vegetable, mineral. If a person understands this, then that person has the beginning of wisdom.
