Sai Baba Speaks
"Call me by any name - Krishna, Allah, Christ. Can't you recognise Me in any Form? Continue your worship of your chosen God along the lines familiar to you and you'll find you are coming near to Me, for all Names and Forms are Mine." —Sathya Sai Baba "Forms of worship, or phraseology of adoration, or the style of address may vary, but all religions are directed towards the same consummation. The same bloodstream circulates in all the limbs of the body. The same divine Stream activates the entire universe. Visualise the Supreme Architect, that Incomprehensible Designer, that Unseen Life-giver. This is spoken of as the realisation of the Fatherhood of God and the Brotherhood of Man." —Sathya Sai Baba "All religions teach one basic discipline; the removal from the mind of the blemish of egoism of running after little joys. Every religion teaches man to fill his being with the glory of God and evict the pettiness of conceit. It trains him in the methods of detachment and discrimination so that he may aim high and attain liberation." "Believe that all hearts are motivated by the One and Only God; that all faiths glorify the One and Only God; that all Names in all languages and all forms man can conceive denote the One and Only God. Cultivate the attitude of Oneness between people of all creeds, all countries and all continents. This is the message of love I bring. That is the message I wish you take to heart." —Sathya Sai Baba "Jesus was a Messenger of God; but note this also; all of you are messengers of God. You are all His children. Jesus and His Father are One. You and God are also one, and you can become aware of it. Whatever activity you may be engaged in, wherever you may be, however you may fare, be convinced that you are ever in God, that all is Divine that all acts are offerings to the glory of God, and thus make your lives full and fruitful." —Sathya Sai Baba "Jesus sacrificed His life for the regeneration and welfare of mankind. Today, there are some who exaggerate the so-called differences between different faiths and, for their own selfish purposes, exploit these differences; they thereby bring a bad name to the founders of those religions, who were spiritual giants. No Prophet or Messiah asked his followers to hate other religions or the followers of other faiths. Every religion has declared that God is One and that the Divine dwells in every being. Jesus also proclained the truth that the One Spirit resides in all beings." —Sathya Sai Baba "All faiths are inter-related and mutually indebted to each other, for the principles they teach and the desciplines they recommend are similar. The Vedic tradition is the first in Time. Buddhism, which appeared about 2500 years ago, is its son. Christianity, which was influenced by much in the Orient, is its grandson. Islam, which has the Prophets of Christianity as its base, is the great grandson. All have Love as the fundamental discipline of the mind in order to merge man with the Divine." —Sathya Sai Baba "God sends sages, saints and prophets to unveil the Truth and Himself appears as an Avatar to awaken and liberate mankind. Two thousand years ago, when narrow pride and ignorance defiled mankind, Jesus came as the embodiment of Love and Compassion and lived among men, holding forth the highest ideals of life." —Sathya Sai Baba "Let the different faiths exist, let them flourish, let the Glory of God be sung in all the languages and in a variety of tunes; that should be the idel. Respect the differences between the faiths and recognise them as valid as far as they do not extinguish the flame of unity." —Sathya Sai Baba "As the air we breathe is of God's creation and available to all, so the awareness of God and His Power and Mercy has to be available to all. True seekers on the spiritual path, must hold onto this wide outlook and on the universality of this message. Then the conflict between disparate faiths and credos disappears by itself, and peace and love will be restored on Earth." —Sathya Sai Baba -- --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "saimsg" group.
