I suppose all the hostel boys are happy? Is the discipline being properly
maintained? Exercise some control in regard to your thoughts, words and actions
and understand and carry out SAI's command, work hard and study with interest.
Do not let down your parents and their hopes and expectations but strive
to make them happy. Studying in SAI's college, staying in SAI's nilayam and
being frequently in SAI's company, you should feel SAI's presence everywhere.
It is only when you understand and assimilate SAI's ideals of living that SAI's
Grace is showered on you. In my presence you display utmost obedience and
reverence, but in my physical absence, you indulge in careless and vulgar
actions. You may think that they are for your good but the truth is not hidden
from Me. Understand that SAI is present (resides) in your heart; it is SAI's
wishes and not yours. That should be materialized in your actions, it is
understood that you don't believe that SAI resides in your heart.
SAI is your Thaai, Maai, Aayi. So, do not give place to any ill feelings
but conduct yourselves towards one another as brothers do.
Convey my blessings to all
Baba
