Spiritual Discovery

Love yourself first and everything else falls into line.  You really have to love yourself to get anything done in this world.

- Lucille Ball

Freedom is more than a condition that exists for me in some or most matters.  Freedom is the very essence of my being and moves from within me out into my life.

I free my mind of past hurts or negative remembrances and allow my soul to reach new heights of spiritual discovery.  I free my body by ending harmful habits.

God has not set any limitations on me.  I have the freedom to try new things and to be all that I can be.  And if I do happen to make mistakes, I consider them merely learning experiences that help me know how I can do better next time.

I enthusiastically proclaim, "I am free!"

Thank You, sweet Spirit, for my freedom.

Own Reform

Human Life

Human life is related to both material and spiritual wealth.  The combination of material wealth for daily life and spiritual wealth for achieving supreme bliss constitutes the meaning and goal of human life.

Divinity Is One

True Love

Sai Darshan 1 (Universal) - Part 1 - 29

There is only one form of God,
The God that is within you.
Awaken it.
Follow it and realize the truth.
Time rolls by and waits for none,
So start your search while there is still some light,
Before it gets too dark.


From : 'Sai Darshan' - Part I
(Divine Messages received and recorded by Mrs Seema M Dewan)

The Formless

Sometime or other, what has come from the Divine has to merge in the Divine.  This is the natural destiny of all living beings.  Taking birth as a man, leading a godly life, one ultimately merges in the Divine.

Considering the Divine as formless, some scholars have raised controversies regarding this process.  The truth is that there is no object in the world which is formless.  Even the minutest sub-atomic particle has a form.  Only the ignorant can think otherwise.

It was for this reason that the ancient sages adored the Divine in various forms.  Holding that all forms are made up of atoms, they recognized the Divine in all forms.

All mundane pleasures are transient and ephemeral.  Only he is a true devotee who prays to God for His Love and Bliss.

Q523

What is Grace?



Prasadam means Grace that flows from God when He is propitiated.  My Grace is ever with you; it is not something that is given or taken.  It is given always and accepted by the Consciousness that is aware of its significance.  Win the grace of your own sub-conscious; so that it may accept the Grace of God which is ever available.  God does not deny any one; it is only you who deny God.  When a gift is proffered, you have to do only one little act, so that you may earn it - you have to extend your hand to receive it.  That is the Grace... The Grace itself will confer on you the faith and the strength, the wisdom and the joy.
