There are four components in the term ‘Ceiling on Desires.’ They are - curb on excessive talk, curb on excessive desires and expenditure, control of consumption of food, check on waste of energy. You need some essential commodities for your sustenance. You should not aspire for more. Learn a lesson in this respect from Nature. Only if air is available in sufficient quantity will it be comfortable and good. If it is excessive and there is a gale you will feel uncomfortable. When you are thirsty, you can consume only a limited quantity of water. You can't consume the entire Ganga! Doctors know that the body temperature is normally 98.4. If this goes up to 99 they say fever has set in due to some disorder in the body. So you find that if you cross the limits even to a little extent it is dangerous or harmful.

- Divine Discourse, 19 Jan 1983.

Curbing desire is the surest means to achieve mental peace. – Baba

The greatness of an individual depends on the cultural perfection attained. ‘Culture’ does not connote mere diligence. It means the removal of evil thoughts and propensities, and the promotion of good thoughts and qualities. It is important that young students live a life characterised by peace and self-control so that they will have a peaceful and contented life later as a citizen. Human life is comparable to a tree and the kinsmen of the individual to its branches. On these branches the flowers of thoughts and feelings blossom. These flowers gradually develop into fruits of good qualities and virtues. The nectarine juice present in these fruits is character. Without roots and fruits, a tree is mere firewood. Self-confidence is the root of the tree of life and character, its fruit. With the hope that you will all become exemplary citizens, purify your hearts and reform society, I bless you all.

- Summer Showers, Jan 1979, Ch 1.

A true human being is one, who is filled with pure, unselfish love! – Baba

There is no point in talking sweetly if there is no sweetness in your heart. Sweetness in speech and bitterness in heart is not the quality of a human being. There should be sweetness in your thought, word and deed. This is the true sign of a human being. Human beings are considered most sacred because they have the unique quality of love in them. God incarnates in human form only to spread the message of love. Once you have love in your heart, you can conquer the whole world. There is love in you, but you are not able to express it in the proper way. Develop the spirit of brotherhood. Even when you come across your bitter rival, address him as brother and talk to him with love. When you address him as brother, his heart will melt and hatred will disappear at once. Hence fill your life with love. Nothing is superior to love in this world.

- Divine Discourse, 17 Oct 2003.

Kindness and compassion are the hallmark of a true human being. – Baba

You may be subjected to calumny, insult and dishonour; you may be plunged into poverty or pain; but the person who has surrendered to the Will of God will welcome each of these gladly and bear it with equanimity. The Lord will never give up His children. Those devoted to God have to be patient and calm, under the most poignant provocation. The fact is, the pious and the God-fearing are those who are visited by travails and troubles: in order to teach mankind these great truths, Krishna enacted this drama with the Pandavas as the cast. Every incident in their lives is but a scene in His play. Intending to declare to the world their intense devotion and its efficacy, and also to hold them up as examples for the Kali age that was to come, the Lord contrived this thrilling drama. There is nothing more in this than that purpose of the Lord.

- Ch 19, Bhagavatha Vahini.

Unwavering faith is the sign of spiritual success. – Baba

"Every drop of blood coursing through the veins is but a drop from the shower of His grace. Can this material body composed of the five elements move or act without His prompting? Every muscle is but a lump of His love. Every bone and cartilage is but a piece of His mercy. Unable to understand this secret, we strut about boasting, 'I achieved this; I accomplished this'. Most people forget that the all-ruling, all-knowing Lord is the puppeteer (sutradhari), the holder of strings that move the puppets and make them act their roles. Character cannot deviate even a dot from His directions; His Will guides and determines every single movement and gesture. It is indeed unfortunate that most actors claim they are the actual doers and enjoyers, plunged in ignorance of the basic truth. When will people ever realise that they are but bags of skin, executing His will?", rued Arjuna.

- Ch 10, Bhagavatha Vahini.

Bhakti is dedication with nothing held back; not even a wisp of ego should remain. His command alone counts; His will prevails. – Baba

“When the Lord takes on the deluding human form, He moves with us, mixes and dines with us, behaves as our very own kinsman, well-wisher, friend, and guide; and also saves us from many a calamity that threatened to overwhelm us. He showered divine mercy on us and solved the toughest problems that defied solution, in remarkably simple ways. When He was near and dear to us, we were carried away by pride that we had His grace and did not try to fill ourselves with that supreme joy, to dive deep into the flood of His grace. We sought from Him mere external victory and temporal benefits, ignoring the vast treasure that could have filled our hearts. We never contemplated on His reality. We might be born many times over, but can we ever have such a friend and kinsman again?”, remarked Arjuna recounting the time he spent with Krishna.

- Ch 10, Bhagavatha Vahini.

Avatars come in the world to teach humanity the way of love. – Baba
