Synonym Round – Ocean
“Life on earth is as on the ocean, ever restless, with the waves of joy and grief, the swirling currents of desires and the whirlpools of passion, greed and hatred. To cross this samsara, the only reliable raft is a heart filled with love. If man is not prompted by this high purpose, life is a mere tossing on the waves, for the sea of life is never calm.” "- Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba"
