THOUGHT FOR THE DAY

Listen to the Gayatri Mantra chanted by Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba

  

 

No amount of money can procure the bliss that you attain by serving others. Money comes and goes, but morality comes and grows. There have been many men of affluence in this land, but what happened to them ultimately? They had to leave the world empty-handed. No one can carry even a fistful of dust at the time of departing from the world. Otherwise, there would have been rationing even for dust in the country! When you leave the body, you carry with you only the good and bad that you have done in your life. - Divine Discourse, July 16, 2001.

       


O! LORD!

Take my life and let it be consecrated to thee

Take my love and let it flow in fullness of devotion to Thee

Take my heart and let it be filled with overflowing love for Thee

Take my hands and let them work incessantly for Thee

Take my soul and let it be merged in one with Thee

Take my body and let it be in devotion dedicated to Thee

Take my everything and let me be an instrument to work


The best method to spread Vedanta Philosophy is to live it; there is no other royal road.

Happy is he who is drowned in heavenly intoxication. Blessed is he who is dead drunk in divine Madness. Worshipful is he who is absorbed in deep Atmanand and Supreme Bliss being lost to the world.

The moments of realisation are those when all thoughts of worldly relations, worldly connections, worldly ties, worldly property, worldly desires, worldly needs are all melted into GOD, into Truth.

By your discretion convert all stumbling blocks of the world into stepping stones to realisation.

The energy we waste in judging others is just what is needed to make us live up to our own ideals. You cannot be a slave of the flesh and at the same time be the master of the Universe.

Assert your GOD head. Fling into utter oblivion the little self, as if it had never existed. When the bubble bursts, it finds itself the whole ocean. You are the whole, the Infinite, the All.

All one’s actions must be done with the sole purpose to please God.  One’s innate tendencies depend on the feelings cultivated in one’s heart.  The heart may be compared to a paper. A paper has no smell of it own. It acquires the smell of the contents wrapped in it. If it is wrapped with jasmine flowers, it acquires the smell of jasmine in it. If good feelings are packed in it, you will certainly develop good tendencies.  Any sadhana done with noble feelings will yield good result. A heart with compassion is the temple of God.

The existence of different castes, communities and religions has nothing to do with violence, unrest and conflicts in the present day scenarios.  It is only the absence of inner purity that is responsible for all the chaos.  If the thoughts are sacred they will certainly fructify.  One need not think that one does not have enough money or resources.  If one resolves to do something good one is bound to succeed.  The power of noble thoughts will give one the necessary strength.  Love everyone and see yourself as a reflection of God with that wonderful shining light all around you.  That is the way to God.

How are good feelings cultivated?  The ears should listen to sacred stories.  The tongue should utter sacred words and the hands must be used in the service of society.  One must be good, see good, and do good at all times. On should foster pure and divine feelings and must consider everyone as divine.  One must be of firm conviction that God is always with you, in you and around you.

God’s love for his devotees is limitless.  No task is mean or lowly for Him where his devotees are involved.  He will do what has to be done at any time, any place.  Protection and welfare of his devotees is His priority number one. God offers Himself to His devotees in exactly the same manner in which devotees offer themselves to Him.  Remember only God is your true friend.

Spirituality starts with faith.  Man aspires for Bliss.  But how can he attain Bliss?

Where there is faith there is love

Where there is love there is peace

Where there is peace there is truth

Where there is truth there is God

Where there is God there is Bliss

The path of spirituality starts with faith and ends with Bliss.  There is no easier path to peace and bliss other than controlling one’s own senses.  Liberation can only be attained by serving noble souls.

A RESPONSE TO THE JOURNALISTS' ALLEGATIONS

God, The Avathar and The Doubting Thomas

The Sanctity of the Lingam

In January 1963, Swami gave a wonderful Discourse on the Sanctity and other Aspects of the Shiva Lingam. Excerpts of that Wonderful Discourse are reproduced below :

THE LINGAM is the Absolute form of Divinity, It is from GOD'S NAVEL.  The Lingam is the Purest Form of Divinity. Lord Shiva is associated with the Lingam because Shiva is the Purest Form of Divine  Consciousness in every form. Shiva and the Lingam represent the Purest  Form of Love. Once When Lord Shiva was deep in Meditation and Prayer, The Heat that Radiated from his Physical Form threatened to burn everything, As the God's stood before him in sincere prayer, Shiva  started vomiting Fire continuously and after some time from his mouth came the Lingam, This Holy Lingam cooled Shiva's Divine heat and saved the World, That is how it came to be associated with Shiva.

Why Do I CREATE THE LINGAM?, Because when I take the Lingam out from my Physical Body, The Godliness of that Lingam spreads to each and everyone assembled there and who are praying to God. Many times  people ask me "Swami why do you suffer so much Physically before the Lingam comes out of you ?, I do not suffer at all, It is only your  reflections that see me in Distress, Why should I suffer ?, People suffer because they do wrong, When they see the Lingam, everybody becomes Purified, Swami undergoes Physical Suffering for his people  to make them Understand that I take the sufferings of my people on me, This is nothing for me. It is you that should understand that Swami suffers because he wants all of you to live in peace and  happiness always.

Only those whom I have called can serve Me

Let each and everyone of us print the Below words of Bhagawan in our Heart lest we forget them at anytime. Words which make each and everyone of us a Divine Messengers in Bhagawan's Divine Mission :

" These are My words to you, My Devotees. Each of you has a unique and valuable part to play in this lifetime. Only those whom I have called can serve Me.

My mission has now reached that point in time when each one of you now has work to do. This planet has a purpose in the great galaxy in which it is held. The purpose is now unfolding before our eyes. I call upon you to radiate the Devotion within you so that its unseen power will envelop all who come into your orbit. To successfully perform your part always remain centered upon me. Allow yourselves to impart that purity of heart within you towards all human beings and all living creatures and do not reach for the fruits of your work. This part of my mission will be performed in absolute silence. You are My instruments from whom My love will pour. Be always aware that the moment you let your ego descend upon you My work ceases. When you have overcome your negative unmind-fullness you will again become My Source. The multiplication of My Love will be felt throughout the world. I have prepared you for this work over many incarnations. I have drawn you to Me. I have made great steps in My Mission over these past incarnations.
My work is ceaseless and so your work too, is without end. Know that I am within you and without you. There is no difference. Rid yourselves of petty matters forevermore. You are now Me and I am now Thee. There is no difference. My Darshan will pour forth from Me to and through you.

You may be unaware of this constant action. Be ever pure of heart and soul and mankind in your lifetime will benefit from your unique qualities. Others too, will join Me in this Mission when I draw them to Me.

The time is approaching when all humanity will live in harmony. That time will be here sooner than one expects. Before it arrives be prepared for whatever is needed to reveal to every living thing the true purpose of existence. It is not what anyone alive can imagine. It is not something that one can try to aspire to. It is beyond all comprehension. I can say that its Beauty is magnificent beyond all dreams. And as each of you perform your silent work I will embrace you to My Heart and henceforth your soul shall be lifted up and your eyes will reveal My Presence within you. This I say to all My Devotees from the Lord's Mountain top where all the Universe become one. Be about My work, My beloved Devotees. Your breath will carry the scent of the Blossoms of Heaven. Your example will be that of Angels. You joy will be My joy "
