Sai Inspires - 31st August 2007 from Prashanti Nilayam

Dear Reader,  Loving Sairam from the Heart2Heart Team. How can the love in our hearts confer on us perennial joy? Swami tells us today. Did you read the article "Overcoming Fate With Faith"? Click here to read now.

Sai Inspires - 31st August 2007

Love is like the mariner's compass, which always points to the north. At any time, any place or in any circumstance love points only towards God. Hence, everyone should try to understand how the Love principle works. Love can be compared only with love. Prema (love) and Anuraga (affection) are one and the same. But affection, when it is directed towards worldly objects, gets tainted. Because of this pollution, joy and sorrow ensue. Man becomes a prey to desires and disappointments. However when Love is directed towards God, it becomes pure, selfless, enduring and Divine. - Divine Discourse, November 24, 1990.

Love gives and forgives. - Baba

Dear Reader,  Loving Sairam from the Heart2Heart Team. Swami, today, awakens us to an important truth. Did you read the article "The Sai Movement in Peru"? Click here to read now.

Sai Inspires - 30th August 2007

Man is the highest object in creation. Man should not be a creature of instincts like the animals, which are subject to Nature, but should become a master of Nature. He should progress from the Nara (human) to the Narayana (Divine). An intelligent human being should not regard himself as bound by Samsara (worldly attachments). It is not the world that binds man. It has neither eyes to see nor hands to grasp. Man is a prisoner of his own thoughts and desires. In his attachment to the ephemeral and the perishable, man forgets his inherent Divinity and does not realize that everything in the Universe has come from the Divine and cannot exist without the power of the Divine. - Divine Discourse, December 25, 1987.

You are all caskets of Divine Love; share it, spread it, express that love in acts of service, words of sympathy and acts of compassion. - Baba

Sai Inspires - 29th August 2007

Men should concentrate on their natural spiritual tendencies rather than succumbing to the allurements of worldly objects. For this purpose, association with good people is essential. Eschew totally the company of bad people. Good company does not mean participating in bhajans and religious gatherings. Sathsang truly means cultivating the company of one's Sath (conscience). It means being immersed in the contemplation of God. Carry on your daily duties with your thoughts centered on God. Deem every action as an offering to God. That is the way to perfect one's human nature and sanctify one's life. - Divine Discourse, December 18, 1994.

Hands in the society, head in the forest. - Baba

Dear Reader,  Loving Sairam from the Heart2Heart Team. How to reach the stage of the divine from the level of the human? Swami explains to us today. Did you try this issue's "Quiz on H2H"? Click here to read now.

Sai Inspires - 28th August 2007

True spirituality emphasizes the truth that is common to all religions. One should not hate any religion or ridicule any form of worship. One must recognize the unifying truth in all religions. God is not separate from you. However, by regarding God as separate from him, man resorts to various kinds of worship. In the present day world, this type of Karmopaasana (worship through action) is necessary. But one should not be engaged all his life in this form of worship. Gradually one should reach a higher level. Only then humanness gets Divinized. - Divine Discourse, December 18, 1994.

It is only when you develop love and the spirit of sacrifice that you will realise the divinity that is in the human. - Baba

Dear Reader,  Loving Sairam from the Heart2Heart Team. What should we do if we want to understand divinity? Swami tells us today. Did you read the article "When God Injects Hope in a Billion Hearts..."? Click here to read now.

Sai Inspires - 28th August 2007

If we wish to understand the Divinity that transcends the human understanding, we should seek to reach a level above the human. Till that is reached, we have to experience everything at the human level alone. Living as a human being, how can one recognize that which transcends the human capacity? Therefore, in the first instance, man must try to live as a human being. He has to recognize the divinity that dwells in the human form. Man has to cultivate faith in the truth and live accordingly. Leading a life of dedicated service, man must enjoy the fruit of Prema (Divine Love). The best way to love God is to love all and serve all. - Divine Discourse, April 26, 1993.

Love knows no fear, no untruth, no anxiety, no grief. - Baba

Sai Inspires - 26th August 2007 from Prashanti Nilayam

Dear Reader,  Loving Sairam from the Heart2Heart Team. Scroll Down to read our Sunday Special: "THE NIGHTMARE TURNS INTO A REVELATION" Is the faith that we align ourselves to important? Swami tells us today. Did you read the article "Finding the Secret of Bliss"? Click here to read now.

Sai Inspires - 26th August 2007

What is important today is not what particular faith one professes, whether he is a Christian, a Buddhist, a Muslim or a Hindu. The real question is how far he is a true human being. Develop therefore, your human qualities. What constitutes humanness? It is good conduct alone. The Indian epics hail man as Manuja - one who belongs to the lineage of the sage Manu. As such every human being has the latent tendencies of a sage. Unfortunately, instead of these traits, only vicious tendencies are to the fore. Man must recover his spiritual heritage. He must cultivate sublime and Divine feelings. - Divine Discourse, December 18, 1994.

Any act that is done with purity in thought, word and deed is Dharma (right conduct). - Baba

THE NIGHTMARE TURNS INTO A REVELATION For this Sunday, we have an article by Sri B Arvind, a former student of Sri Sathya Sai University. The long day finally came to an end and with all eagerness I looked forward to hitting the sack as soon as possible. The bed seemed to be beckoning me and I felt that we were made for each other. With the softness of the pillow below my head and the warmth of the blanket over me, I snuggled inside and then was lost to the world. Soon another world opened up to me. I was somewhere in the deep woods walking all alone. The heavy overhanging creepers gave me the creeps and the dense interlocked branches barely allowed a few beams of light to percolate to the ground level. It was by the yellowish colour of the light beams that filtered down that I realized it was day and not night. The only sound I could hear was the soft crunching of the moss and ferns under my own feet as I walked. I knew not where I had come from and had not the slightest idea where I was headed to. Uncertainty and fear haunted me as I was unsure of what I would meet on the road ahead. Out of the blue, there were loud howls from the treetops above. A fierce group of some primates seemed to have found sudden interest in me and they were charging down towards me. I broke into a run. Dashing wildly along an imaginary path, among the thorny bushes and slippery ferns, I moved with a speed that amazed me. But that is the way anyone would run when in mortal danger.  A roar now echoed from my left. To my horror, I saw that it was a black panther - a mother guarding her cubs. Not exactly pleased with the intruder, she decided that I would make a good meal for her family. She joined the chase that was getting worse every moment for me. I was now palpitating - more out of fear than exhaustion. And then the worst happened. A tiny slip followed by a huge fall. It was sickening to hear the cracking of my own bones.  I rolled over the mossy yet stony forest floor and felt as though my right leg did not exist.  As I tried to get up an excruciating pain shot up from my knee and traveled the length of my body. It was a hopeless condition. Automatically tears coursed down my cheeks and I just lay there waiting for the inevitable end. The apes above and the panther below - what a gruesome exit it would be! I closed my eyes and for the first time in my life, I seemed totally blank. I woke up gasping in my bed. Beads of perspiration rolled down my fear stricken face. I sat with my mind in the same state of blankness. A few moments later, I was gulping down a glass of water. The last week had been terrible. Every night scary dreams haunted me. Every night, I woke up in the middle of my sleep feeling helpless. What should I do? Who would help me? I decided that the dreams had gone too far this time. I would put an end to them before they ended me. What an irony! I create the dream and it tries to destroy me? I walked up to the mirror and looked at mySelf. The image there seemed to speak to me: "You are the one who has created that dream. You can change anything that you want. You need not feel helpless because everything there is just a manifestation of your mind and your will. You are the creator and so create whatever you like. Do not suffer the limitations that you create for others. Nothing can limit you. Whatever your mind can think of, you can do because you are the creator. But remember, you must Know who you are. Otherwise you will again get overwhelmed by your own creation." I walked up to my walkman now. I recorded whatever MySelf had spoken to myself. I plugged in the earphones and played the tape. I heard it over and over again till once more, I was lost to this world. I was again in the deep woods walking all alone........... Fast forward to where I lay on the floor awaiting the panther and the apes. All of a sudden, there I found a walkman next to me. I put on the earphones and heard what MySelf spoke to myself. I Knew. It is a dream and I am just creating it. Then as the panther lunged at my throat, I willed it to be transformed into a sweet kitten. It sat in my arms mewing. I looked at my right leg and willed. It was as healthy and wholesome as never before. Another will later, the apes brought me food and water and seemed to massage my feet. Then I realized that I had stopped thinking. I just seemed to know everything. I knew I was in New York and I was walking barefoot on the streets there. Everyone around thought that I was mad and it just did not matter for me. I once again Knew that they appreciate me a lot and at that instant there was a huge gathering waiting to hear me speak. I didn't want to speak for I was lost in the bliss of my new found Identity- my true one in fact. I knew that I would fill everyone with the same bliss and the next minute, all seemed so ecstatic. I then knew that I was gone and the next moment I was on the slopes of the Himalayas . I knew that the cold would never be able to touch me and sure enough, it didn't. I came to understand that the New York Times carried my picture on the front page with the headlines, "Miracle Man vanishes into thin air!" I felt that....sorry I knew that humanity had been misguided. By now, I had stopped thinking and feeling. I just knew everything, for I was and am the creator! As I walked the great Gangetic plains, I knew a wave of kindness and with a wave of my hand, I healed all the sick there. I created a world just as I wanted. Years passed this way. It was so simple. Since I was in charge, I traversed through time too. Time travel was not a myth. I knew it and so could do it. Then I knew I was back in New York . People rushed to me from everywhere and then I was facing a mammoth gathering in a super-dome. Everyone addressed me as God! Oh my God! This was crazy. Didn't they realize that this was all a dream. If I was God, then they too were God equally. It was only out of supreme compassion that I spoke. I said, "There is only one thing that you need to know. You are all God too. You can do all that I do only if you know this Truth. The difference between me and you is that I know the Truth while you do not!" Well, the people adored me but they were not ready to understand what I said. They felt that I was muttering the impossible. Bound in their own narrow realms, they refused to see the Truth. I told them, "You do not have to achieve anything. Just Know. That’s all." This simple statement for them seemed the most complicated. But I just knew that wherever I go, I would just speak the same thing - that alone was the Truth, everything else an illusion. I woke up in the morning, gently this time. I felt in supreme control of myself. The time was 5:30am . I washed and dressed and flicked on the digital radio set and tuned into RadioSai. Swami's sweet voice floated into my room. The Youth Conference Valedictory discourse was on. "You are all God. Everything you see is God.  You spend hours in meditation and spiritual activity. 11 seconds are enough. Keep yourself steady and Know, ‘I am I’. That’s all there is to be done..................." My ears were deaf to any more words. I was lost in a trance like state. Deja vu? A sudden flash of realization? I don't know what exactly I felt. I fell on my knees and hoped that once again myself would listen to MySelf. Dear reader, though this story is a fiction, the point it conveys is profound. In short, we can create our own world, the exact world that we want to live in, ourselves. We have that power in us! Jai Sai Ram.

Sai Inspires - 25th August 2007

Human life is precious, sublime and meaningful. But by involvement in purely worldly pursuits, the greatness of human birth is forgotten. Without values, life is meaningless. When there is purity in thought, word and deed, human values are practiced. The unity of the three H's is essential - Heart, Head and Hand. But today this unity is absent among people, with the result that men are becoming inhuman. - Divine Discourse, December 18, 1994.

Man is a spark of the Divine and he must manifest this in his every activity. - Baba

Dear Reader,  Loving Sairam from the Heart2Heart Team. Prasanthi Bulletin is updated till 22nd August 2007. Swami tells us today about the spiritual enquiry which we should do earnestly. Did see this issue's "Photo Gallery"? Click here to read now.

Sai Inspires - 24th August 2007

Pleasures which are experienced with a sense of detachment cease to be bhogas (enjoyment of material comforts) and become a form of Yoga. After enjoying all the pleasures and comforts we seek, what is it that remains? The body decomposes into five elements. What is basic is the Atma principle that sustains the body and all the senses. When the Atma leaves the body, neither the sense organs nor the mind can function. The Atma is Eternal and Omnipresent. It is self-existent. The spiritual quest is to understand and realize the nature of the Atma... Every individual should regard the enquiry into nature of the Atma as the primary purpose of life. Purity of thought, word and deed is essential for this enquiry. - Divine Discourse, January 20, 1985.

God is as far from you as you are from yourself. - Baba

Sai Inspires - 23rd August 2007

Multiplicity is a characteristic of Prakriti (Nature). The Cosmos is a projection of the Divine. It is called Jagat - that in which things arise and disappear, come and go. Nothing seems permanent. But the spiritually realized person will recognize the permanent that subsumes the changing entity. Such a realization can come only when a person is pure in thought, word and deed. Purity must express itself in loving service. - Divine Discourse, November 21, 1990.

Faith is the foundation for the realisation of God. - Baba

Sai Inspires - 22nd August 2007

Few are qualified to declare the distinction between Spirit and matter and to determine the nature of Divinity and the truth about the phenomenal world. The reason is that all people in the world suffer from delusions of different kinds. Consequently they suffer from various fears and hallucinations and have no peace of mind. The only way to get rid of these delusions and fears is to practice love and realize the Divinity that is present in all beings. Once this spiritual unity of all beings is recognized, the relevance of this truth for every sphere of life - the physical, the social, the political, the economic, the ethical and the spiritual will become clear. - Divine Discourse, November 21, 1990.

The one who follows the Spirit is the real spiritual seeker. - Baba

Dear Reader,  Loving Sairam from the Heart2Heart Team. Swami enlightens us today on a fundamental truth. Did you read the story "Overcoming Fate with Faith"? Click here to read now.

Sai Inspires - 21st August 2007

To comprehend the unity of body, mind and Atma (spirit) is to realize a fundamental truth. The body is gross. The Atma is subtle. It is the mind that links the two. If the Atma is ignored, man is reduced to the level of the animal. When the body and the Atma are ignored and the mind alone is active, the humanness comes to the fore. When the body and the mind are kept out and the Atma alone is experienced, Divinity is attained. How is this to be achieved? An essential requisite is Thyaga, the spirit of sacrifice. - Divine Discourse, January 20, 1985.

The Atma has no birth, growth, decay or death. It is changeless, immutable and eternal. - Baba
