Valentine Message The love of God is the real truth and reality of Valentine's Day. True Love Is Eternal Love Love is one without a second. When this love is directed towards the world, it is called attachment (anuraga), and when directed towards God, it is called Prema (devotional love). True love expands the self; attachment contracts it. Cultivate nearness with Me in the heart and it will be rewarded. Then you too will acquire a fraction of that Supreme Love. - Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba There is no God other than love. Love is your life, your friend, your relative, your food and your everything. Heart that is filled with love can never be polluted. Love is nectarine. Once you fill it in your heart, the poison of evil will have no place in it. - Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba Love one another and help others to rise to the higher levels, simply by pouring out love. Love is infectious and the greatest healing energy. Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba That which does not change is only one -- it is Love. All relationships come and go - all are passing clouds. Only one thing is permanent, and this is Divine Love. Only the Love that is unchanging and shines brightly always in the heart is true Love. It is unaffected by joy or sorrow, praise or blame. God is bound to you by the closest bonds of Love. God is the nearest, the dearest, the most loving, the most eager companion and kinsman for man. - Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba The relationship between you and God is Love alone. Nothing else can be called Love. All other things that come in between are passing clouds; they are just attachments. (Discourse, December 25, 1995) LOVE IS THE ULTIMATE POWER Love sustains. Love strengthens. Love is the urge behind all adventures, all sacrifices, all success. When Love is the lever that operates the mind, only good can result. (Sanathana Sarathi, October 1988:254) Divine Love is strong and steady enough to leap over all obstacles, confront with equanimity all changes of fortune, and defeat all attempts to delay or deviate. (Sathya Sai Speaks, XII:227) Love does not watch through the eyes; it knows the heart. Love does not hear through the ears; it listens with peace. Love does not talk with words; it talks with compassion. (Discourse, December 25, 1995) If you view things with Love, with a loving heart, the whole world, the whole creation, will appear to you as a reflection of Love. (Sathya Sai Speaks, XI:99) Live with Love, in Love, for Love. Then, the Lord who is the embodiment of Love will grant you all that you need in spite of your not asking for anything. (Sathya Sai Speaks, V:25) God as Love dwells in your heart and therefore the kingdom of Heaven is within you. When you know that God who is Love, dwells within you, when you realize this truth in the freshness and beauty of the immortal spirit then your life will sing the music of Love. Love helps you to see God in everyone, everyone as Divine. The universe is not false; it is not a trap. It is the splendor of God, His reflection. (Sathya Sai Speaks, VIII:66) God is the source of all Love. Love God. Love the world as the vesture of God, no more, no less. Through Love, you can merge in the Ocean of Love. (Sathya Sai Speaks, VI:230) Can there be anything more lovable than God, who is Beauty, Strength, Glory, Fame, Splendor, Wisdom, in their fullest bloom? (Sathya Sai Speaks, V:310) Understand that the purpose of life is to know the Embodiment of Love, namely God, through Love, and demonstrate through your own Love that you have known God. (Sathya Sai Speaks, IX:216) You have no need to go in search of Love elsewhere. It is all within you. It is this Love that is all-pervasive. It is this Love that unifies mankind. (Discourse, November 23, 1996) The highest type of Love sees the Divine shining in all and never wanes. It does not see men as belonging to different faiths or nations or classes or castes; it sees all as embodiments of Divinity.
