By Rajani]

Swami replied:- The word ‘Rasa’ means chemical and also love. Love is also a powerful chemical that cures the disease of boredom, ignorance and depression. The love to God is the best chemical to be discovered by every soul in its life. Veda says that God is love (Raso vai saḥ). I am a professor of chemistry and hence, you thought that I am an expert in chemistry or Rasa. It is true, but, I developed more love to God, who is also Rasa. My knowledge about chemistry was for the sake of earning a livelihood for My worldly life. My knowledge about God was for the sake of My spiritual life. Once Shri Shivananda Mahaaraaj asked Me “how You being a professor of Chemistry became a scholar of spiritual knowledge of God?”. I replied “both chemistry and God are the meanings of the word Rasa and hence, I became the scholar of spiritual knowledge of God”. Then, Mahaaraaj told “The sword of God Datta is sharp on both edges”!
