Pearl 137

If ever you are in doubts as to the right thing to do, then consult your conscience.  God is in each person as his conscience.

I Call

GEM 481

Do not get too much attached to your body.  So long as you are alive, you must keep your body in healthy condition.

(From : Garland of 1008 Gems, Bhagawan Shri Sathya Sai Baba's Sayings)

Q397

Of the six inner foes, Kama, Krodha, Lobha, Moha, Mada and Matsarya, being the obstacles in the path of the seeker, what exactly is Kama?

Desires for riches, property, honor, status, fame, children; why list the lot? Attachment to all things of this sensory world, this false, temporary world.

(Prasnottara Vahini, Pg 32)

Sai Jewel - 10

Divine Emptiness

Pause for a moment and look around you,
See not the movement but sense the stillness,
That pervades the air...

Amidst all confusion, there is perennial peace,
Unseen by naked eyes, hidden by illusion,
Oblivious to ignorance...

Seek the diamond, the quiet truth within,
In every pure heart, in every living being,
In Divine emptiness...

Truth

The chief duty of man is investigation into truth.  Truth can be won only through dedication and devotion, and they are dependent on the grace of God, which is showered on hearts saturated with love.

(SSS Vol VI, pg 1)

Let Me Die

Tonight, as I close my eyes

and fade into blissful sleep,

please let me die just a little more...

until the 'I' in me no longer exist,

and thus, only You shall remain.

The Distance

The Paradox

Whoever desires to be given everything
must first give everything away.



- Meister Eckhart (1260-1327), Germany
