Sai Inspires - 1st August 2009 from Prashanti Nilayam

Dear Reader,  Loving Sairam from the Heart2Heart team. What is truly responsible for the different degrees of sorrows and joys that people experience in this world? Swami explains to us today. Did you read the article, "Conversations with Sai" in the August issue of H2H? Click here to read now.

Sai Inspires - 31st July 2009

Creation involves the putting together of substances. What is put together must come apart, in course of time and get liberated. The individual is created and so he has to disintegrate and die. Now some are born happy, and enjoy healthy, happy lives. Some are born miserable. Others are born without hands or legs, or are feeble-minded or defectives. Who hurt them or injured them? God is proclaimed as just and kind. It can be argued: how can such a God ever be so partial and prejudiced? How can such differential treatment come into the realm ruled by God? Such doubts are natural. But the vision of the sages of ancient India who moulded the thought of this land revealed to them that God is not the cause of these differences. They are the consequences of the acts indulged in by the individual in lives previous to the present one. They result in happiness and misery, health and handicaps. Good and bad are self-made, the effects of what was done in previous live s. - Sathya Sai Vahini.

Pleasure is an interval between two pains. - Baba

Sai Inspires - 31st July 2009 from Prashanti Nilayam

Dear Reader,  Loving Sairam from the Heart2Heart team. What exactly is  implied by the word Adhyatmic or spiritual life? Swami kindly teaches us today. Did you read the article, "The Key to Permanent Happiness" in the July issue of H2H? Click here to read now.

Sai Inspires - 31st July 2009

The word "Adhyatmic" or spiritual is often used by aspirants and preceptors.   What exactly is implied when this word is used? Is Bhajan or congregational prayer Adhyatmic?  Or, does it involve religious rituals and ceremonies?  Or, does it involve Japa and Dhyana? (Repetition of Names of the Lord and Meditation)?  Or does it extend to pilgrimages to holy places?  No, No!  These are merely beneficial acts.  Adhyatmic in its real sense relates to two progressive achievements or at least sincere attempts  towards those two achievements - Elimination of the animal traits still clinging to human beings and unification with the Divine. -Divine Discourse, Dec 30, 1977.

Discharge your duties to the best of your skill and intelligence. - Baba

Sai Inspires - 30th July 2009 from Prashanti Nilayam

Dear Reader,  Loving Sairam from the Heart2Heart team. Why should we avoid evil company? Swami explains to us today in simple terms. Did you read the article, "Conversations with Sai, Part-17"? Click here to read now.

Sai Inspires - 30th July 2009

Evil company demeans and debases an individual. Take the example of fire. It is considered holy and is religiously worshipped in many orthodox homes where the scriptures are chanted  and provide the guidelines of life. On the other hand, when fire enters a bail or a rod of iron, it has to suffer hammer blows in plenty while the rod or the ball is shaped into some tool by a human being. Attachment to the iron brings about this calamity for the highly venerated fire.   - Divine Discourse,  Aug 17 1977.

You are shaped by the company you keep.  Make God your Best Friend- Baba

Dear Reader,  Loving Sairam from the Heart2Heart team. When does the Lord rise and shine within an individual? Swami kindly explains to us today. Did you see the Photo Gallery, "Sai Shruti...Abode of Divine Sublimity"? Click here to read now.

Sai Inspires - 29th July 2009

Sri Krishna (Divine Incarnation of Lord Krishna) was born as the eighth child of Devaki. This is  very significant to an aspirant to visualize the Divine present in themselves. Samadhi is the observance of the eight fold discipline - abstention from evil doing, observance, controlling breath and posture, withdrawal of mind from sense objects, concentration, meditation and absorption in the Self (Atma).  The Lord can be visualized only after the seven steps are successfully negotiated and the mind purified in the process. The term Samadhi represents the intelligence in grasping the fundamental equality of every being. Not only will all feelings of difference and distinction disappear, but even notions such as heat and cold, grief and joy, good and bad, become meaningless. When one reaches that state, the Lord is automatically born in their consciousness. - Divine Discourse,  June 1, 1977.

Your Master is in your heart, where God resides.  Baba

Sai Inspires - 28th July 2009

You will fall if you practise apeksha (attachment), and rise by practising upeksha (non-attachment). In the consecrated fire of your heart, pour your ego. Rise as a humbler, wiser being, saluting the Divine within you. What you hear, must be pondered over. What is pondered, should be put into practice. It is only when all three are accomplished that the realization of Bliss can be attained. - Divine Discourse, 15 Oct 1977.

A pure heart is the best mirror for the reflection of truth. - Baba

Dear Reader,  Loving Sairam from the Heart2Heart team. What should we be vigilant of and persist in its complete eradication? The Divine Master lovingly explains to us today. Did you read the article, "Entralling Reminiscences of the Days of Yore" Click here to read now.

Sai Inspires - 27th July 2009

Human beings have passed through many animal lives before they have come to earth in human form. Strains of animal nature such as cruelty, anger, greed and hatred still persist in many people. Sometimes, one exhibits the tendency of  many animals present in one being. When you indulge in needless and useless controversy of matters beyond your understanding, you announce yourself as a sheep; when you jump from one idea to another, from one ideal to another, from one project to another, without fully involving yourself in any, you exhibit the nature of a monkey.  You must cast off these traits from your composition. - Divine Discourse,  Oct 15, 1977.

Elevate yourselves by speaking good and doing good. - Baba

Sai Inspires - 26th July 2009

Accept the ideal of a disciplined life. Do not set bad examples for your own children. Animal instincts and impulses have persisted in human nature as vestiges and only when their upsurge is controlled and gradually eliminated, the springs of Divinity can manifest. Nature can be modified by nurture. Open yourself gladly to the influence of the Satsang (holy company) to help you to accomplish this goal. A disciplined life is the best offering you can make to the country or to the Divine in you. - Divine Discourse, Aug 17, 1977.

Hands that serve are holier than the lips that pray. - Baba

Dear Reader,  Loving Sairam from the Heart2Heart team. What is a key factor we must understand to attain success in our spiritual journey? Swami kindly reveals to us today. Did you read the article, "Bread from the flour of Love"? Click here to read now.

Sai Inspires - 25th July 2009

The physical is subordinate to the spiritual. The body is the cart and the spirit, the horse. To not follow the disciplines imposed for betterment, is as absurd as putting the cart before the horse. Of course, the cart should be kept in good condition. Vice ruins the body and makes it unfit for the journey of life. The mind is the horse. It  is starved, neglected and not groomed for the journey. Achieve lasting joy and do not throw way precious years of life in silly adventures. Develop faith and do not be turned away by your egoism or other's cynicism. With wisdom and detachment, your hearts will bloom with fragrant beauty. - Divine Discourse,  June 1, 1977.

Know Thyself, that is the only way to know Me. - Baba

Dear Reader,  Loving Sairam from the Heart2Heart team. What is the importance of the company we keep?  Swami teaches the importance of good company with a wonderful example today. Did you read the article, "How My Life Got Its Value" in the July issue of H2H? Click here to read now.

Sai Inspires - 24th July 2009

The company one keeps determines one's character. People join groups where they can freely express their innate nature. You must carefully choose the company you are in. Consider this example: A length of string is a worthless thing,  no one will wear it in the hair or place it reverentially on an idol of God.  But, when it associates itself with a few fragrant flowers, then women decorate their hair with it and devotees place the garland of flowers on the idol they adore. - Divine Discourse,  17 Aug 1977 .

Evil company demeans and debases any individual- Baba

Dear Reader,  Loving Sairam from the Heart2Heart team. What is the true nature of pleasures and what is our duty? Swami lovingly teaches us today. Did you see the Photo Gallery, "Amazing Beauty Amidst the Blossoms" Click here to see now.

Sai Inspires - 23rd July 2009

Human beings think that they are enjoying the pleasures; but, really speaking, it is the pleasures that are enjoying them. They sap your energies, dry up your discrimination, eat up the allotted years, and worm into the mind, infesting it with egoism, envy, malice, hate, greed and lust. You are born in society, it has helped to guard, guide and foster you, to educate you and to fill you with dreams and ideals. Repay to the society the debt you owe to it. - Divine Discourse, July 30, 1977.

Virtue alone will bring the Grace of God. - Baba

Sai Inspires - 22nd July 2009

You do not lose much if a finger is so damaged that it needs to be cut off. The body can still function and be a fit instrument. Even if you lose a limb, you can function and benefit with the help of your faculties. But if you lose character, then everything is lost. Do not allow laziness, hatred or anger to contaminate your hearts. The world looks forward to your leadership in establishing and ensuring peace. Practice calmness and the habit of deliberation. If anyone blames, abuses or hurts you, do not retaliate with the same. Behave nobly and with patience. - Divine Discourse, Jul 30 1977

Education must confer humility and selflessness.  Baba
