I usually read these beautiful lines written by Swami very often and hence derive joy from it.The words are so soothing and loving.How else do you expect our mother's letter to be then?
My Children, Live with Prema, for prema. Then the Lord who is prema swarupa will grant you all that you need in spite of you not asking for anything. He is the mother who does not wait to hear the moan of the child to feed it. Prema is so vast and deep;He anticipates every need and rushes with help you must have. Surrender to the Lord, offer everything you have to Him. He will take care of you. Experience the bliss that comes from unconditional surrender and leave behind forever the miseries and disappointments of the past. The choice is yours and the timing is yours; I will be there waiting for you........ With love, Mother Sai =========================================================================================================== Bhagawan says : Social service should not become show-cial, work carried out for publicity or with the camera in view. Nor should it become slow-cial work. Why go slow, when you are doing good to the deserving? Do as much as you can. If you cannot do any good, at least desist from doing harm or from finding fault with those who serve you. ======================================================================================================== Bhagawan says : All bodies are like mirrors, and what you see is your own reflection. How then can you become angry with your own reflection? Understand that there is nothing greater than love. When you fill your heart with love, your thoughts, vision, words and deeds will all be suffused with love. ======================================================================= People think that it is God who is the cause of their happiness and sorrow. But it is not really so. Each one is responsible for his actions and reaps their consequences, good or bad. God is the eternal witness and does not interfere in this. He neither gives happiness nor sorrow. If you talk endearingly to someone, he will also speak to you in the same loving manner. But if you talk in an arrogant way, you will get a similar response. As is the action, so is the reaction. The reaction, reflection and resound are based on your own thoughts, words and actions; God is not responsible for them. If you stand before a mirror, you will see your own reflection. In whatever way you speak to others, you will have the resound in the same way. Whatever thoughts you have in your mind, they will be reflected back to you. It is therefore essential for man to know whether his thoughts and actions are good or bad. Whatever good or bad you experience is the result of your thoughts, words and actions. When any bad thought comes into your mind, give it up immediately. If you conduct yourself in this manner, you will become a true devotee of God and achieve liberation. >From Bhagavan's Ugadi Discourse on 30th March 2006. OUR LIFE IS HIS MESSAGE
