Dry Coconut
Description
- We never offer the coconut as it is.
- We remove the fibre that covers it and offer the fruit that is free from all the external fibre.
- Only then is it possible to break the coconut.
- By breaking the coconut, the water in it flows out.
- The heart is the coconut and it is covered by the fibre of desire.
- The water that flows out is the 'Samskara' or purification. The fibres on the surface are the desires.
- We must strip the heart of all desires and offer the core without the fibre. It then becomes an offering to God.
- If we plant a coconut as it is, in course of time and by watering it, another plant will grow out of it.
