About This Quote

The quote, "If in thirst you drink water from a cup, you see God in it. Those who are not in love with God will see only their own faces in it." is very apt. If you are thirsty, then drink from any cup that you find. As long as you drink from the purest of cups, then you can see God everywhere.

If someone tries to poison your cup or trick you into believing that the cup is dirty, then you will not be able to see God in the cup anymore. But if someone gives you a pure cup of water, then they have given you the key to heaven.
