Sai Inspires - February 1st, 2011

Everyone should firmly believe that they are the Atma, the Embodiment of Divine Self. They must be aware that the Atma cannot be cut in twain by the sword, that fire cannot burn It, that water cannot wet It, and that the wind cannot dry It. The Atma has no bounds. Its centre is in the body, but its circumference is unbounded. Death means the Atma has shifted from one body to another. This is the belief that you must firmly have in mind.  The Atma is not subject to material or worldly limitations or laws. By its very nature, it is free. It is unbounded. It is purity. It is holiness. It is fullness. - Sathya Sai Vahini, Ch-3.

When you become aware that you are Divine, there can be no fear of death haunting you. - Baba

Sai Inspires - January 31, 2011

There is a close and mutual relationship between the body, and the attitudes and feelings of the mind. That is why inner feelings become evident in our physical gestures. The posture and the appearance of the body help us to discover others feelings. For example, with the sleeves of the shirt rolled up, and the palms rounded into fists, is it possible to exhibit love or devotion? Or while seated cross-legged on the ground with eyes half-closed, and hands held up over the head with palms joined together, is it possible to show one’s anger or hatred or cruelty? That is why the ancient rishis (sages) advised spiritual aspirants to adopt an appropriate bodily pose during prayer and meditation. They saw that through gentle body postures it is possible to control the waywardness of the mind. - Sathya Sai Vahini, Chap 2, Chanting God's Name and Meditation.

Spiritual exercises lacking in love for God are like fruits without juice. - Baba

Wherever you may be, in whatever country, do not give scope for religious differences. Do not give up your religion; adhere to your faith and tradition. When differences between religions are given up, love will develop in you. When love grows, you can have a direct vision of God. Without love, mere verbal prayers are of no avail. Realise that the Love that is present in everyone is the same. It is that common bond of Love of God that binds everyone. - Sathya Sai Speaks, Vol-23, Ch-36.

Love all Serve all; Love is God. - Baba

Sai Inspires - January 29, 2011

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 one day he has to perish. Now, some are born happy; they enjoy healthy, happy lives, while some others are born miserable. A few others are born with physical or mental deformities. Who hurt them or injured them?  God is not the cause for these differences. When a particular task is done again and again, it becomes a habit, a skill; is it not? Therefore, the skill or habit that a new-born exhibits must be due to constant repetition indulged long ago. The suffering, misery, handicap or health and happiness are the consequence of the acts indulged in by the individual in previous lives. Hence, eschew violence.  All must live together in peace and harmony, without causing or suffering injury. - Sathya Sai Vahini, Chap 3, "The One Alone".

You must welcome tests because it gives you confidence and ensures promotion. - Baba

Sai Inspires - January 28, 2011

The very intention of repeating the Divine name and undertaking meditation is to purify the mind and the intellect. In order to achieve this, pure and serene (sathwic) meditation is best. Over time, when the mind and the intellect become pure, they will shine with the splendour of the realization of the Atma (Divine Self). One in whom this understanding shines fully is called a rishi (sage). It is said, Brahmavid Brahmaiva Bhavathi - The knower of Atma becomes the Atma itself. The goal of life, that which makes life worthwhile, is the understanding of the Atma and attaining oneness with it. - Dhyana Vahini, Chap 2, “Chanting God's Name and Meditation".

It is the power of love that is responsible for the earth to rotate without a pivot. - Baba

As each individual is a unique entity, so too each nation has a distinctive individuality. Each person is different from the other in certain matters and is endowed with some special characteristics which are his/her own. So too, each nation has certain special features, not found in others. Every individual has to play a role as part of the system. Each one's own previous karma or deeds has determined a special line or path for him/her. The history of nations too is the same. Each has to play a role already laid down by its destiny. Each nation has to deliver a special message of its own to the world community. - Sathya Sai Vahini, Chap 2.

Every living being in this world is knowingly or unknowingly on a spiritual pilgrimage. - Baba

Dear Reader,  Loving Sairam from the Heart2Heart team! Is spirituality in anyway connected to society and all the creation around us? Swami clarifies today. Featured on Radio Sai: "Sai African Adult Choir in the Divine Presence on Nov 27, 2010" Click here to listen now. Have you tried the recent, "Sai Bhajan Virtual Classroom"? Click here to read now.

Sai Inspires - January 26, 2011

Today, people mistakenly think that spirituality has no relation to worldly life and vice versa. True divinity is a combination of spirituality and social obligations. National unity and social harmony are founded upon spirituality. It is the Divine that links spirituality and social existence. The Creator and the Prakriti (Creation) are inextricably associated with each other. Hence, God should not be regarded as separate from Creation. You must see God in the cosmos. For instance, take a tumbler made of silver. The one who notices the silver in the tumbler, thinks only of the material base and not the form of the container. On the other hand, the one who sees it as a tumbler, may not note that it is made of silver metal. Only the person who can recognise both silver and tumbler can discern that it is a silver tumbler. Likewise , without God, there is no creation. However, most people see only the creation; very few recognise that the creation is a projection of the Creator. It is essential that every human being should realize that without God, there can be no cosmos. - Sathya Sai Speaks, Vol-23, Ch-3.

Nature is the vesture of God. - Baba

Sai Inspires - January 25, 2011

If you crave for the fruit of your acts at every step, you are overpowered by passion. If the fruit is not available, then, gradually, laxity and disgust overpower the spiritual aspirant and the repetition of the Name and meditation slowly dry up. This is the restless, passionate, rajasic path.  For some, the Lord comes to memory only in times of danger or acute suffering or when one is the victim of loss or pain. At such times, such a person prays and vows to arrange ritualistic worship (puja), offer some particular food, or build a temple to the Lord, etc. One calculates the quantity of food placed before the Lord, the tribute offered at His feet, the number of prostrations performed, and the number of times he/she went around the shrine and then asks for proportionate rewards! For those who adopt this attitude in meditation, a nd follow the dull, tamasic path, the mind and intellect can never be pure. - Dhyana Vahini, Chap 2, Chanting God's Name and Meditation.

Faith in your Self is the expression of Divine. - Baba

In the pure, serene (sathwic) path of meditation, you will consider repetition of the Holy Name and meditation as a duty and suffer any amount of trouble for its sake; you will be fully convinced that this world is just an illusion, so you will only do good under all conditions and at all times. You will desire only the good of all and will always love all; you will spend time uninterruptedly in the remembrance and meditation of the Lord. You will not crave even the fruit of repeating the Name and doing meditation; you will leave it all to the Lord. - Dhyana Vahini, Chap 2.

Master the mind, be a mastermind. - Baba

When you achieve sense-control, mind-cleansing, concentration and inner silence, what initially appeared as a logical necessity later dawns upon the purified consciousness as a Positive Permanent Impersonal Will (Prajnaanam Brahma). Through the unremitting practice of Truth, Righteousness, and Fortitude, the Divinity quiescent in the individual will be induced to manifest itself in daily living, transforming every day into the joy of true love. Know the Supreme Reality, breathe It, bathe in It. Live in It. Then It becomes all of you and you become fully Divine. - Sathya Sai Vahini

Steady Perseverance is required to tame the mind. - Baba

Sai Inspires - January 22, 2011

Repetition of God’s Name and meditation should never be measured by mere external standards; they are to be judged by their inner effects. If one sways between impatience and sloth, and always worries, “Why has it not come yet? Why is it still far away?” then it all bolis down to repeating the Name simply and doing meditation with an eye always on the fruit thereof. The single fruit of repetition of Divine Names and doing meditation is the conversion of our focus from outward to inward, that is, seeing the reality of Atmic bliss. For this transformation, one has to be always active and hopeful, regardless of the time taken and the difficulties encountered. One should not count the cost, the time, or the trouble, and await the descent of the Lord’s grace. This patient wait is itself part of tapas (the austerity of meditation). Sticking unfalteringly to the vow is the austerity. - Dhyana Vahini, Chap 2, “Chanting God's Name and Meditation"

The God-centred person has three qualities: Purity, Perseverance and Patience. - Baba
