FROM THE SPIRITUAL TREE

your mind will be jogged. Then the file in the mind will be opened up in which all the items warranting thankfulness become reminders of greater events when thankfulness was appropriate. In this way smaller incidents of thankfulness become pointers to a greater degree of thankfulness, to the point where finally a spring of thankfulness overflows in a person’s heart. This feeling of gratitude increases our attachment with God and ultimately causes us to reach the highest levels of realization. o One who is not thankful for getting lesser things will not be thankful for getting greater things.
