Patience is a virtue which when developed,

Makes you stronger mentally and spiritually.

When you deal with patience to anger,

You automatically reduce the anger within you.

You are able to overlook others' weaknesses,

And develop new strengths that lacked within you.

Patience makes your mind

Calm and less excitable.

It makes you a better listener

And avoids arguments.

But to develop this patience,

You need an inspiration,

The belief and faith of God present at all times.

When such faith is developed,

You know that sooner or later, God will intervene.

In unfavorable situations, bail you out.

You do not see the need to react

Under any circumstances.

In everyone's life there comes a point,

When he is filled with a sense of disgust,

To face the uncertainties of life.

He then goes to look for peace,

And in his search, finds God.

He develops love for God,

For the peace he finds in Him.

This love slowly grows into faith,

And faith in God, slowly builds the patience.

You need to seek your true self.

Ultimately, when you please Him,

With the strength of your faith

And persevering patience,

He reveals Himself to you,

And you find peace forever.

 

From: Sai Darshan by Seema Dewan

 

June 15

 

When you repeat the Name without feeling, it seldom reaches the mark.  The Name 
of the Lord must be recited with awe and wonder, humility and reverence.  The 
bow has to be drawn before the arrow is released, then it will pierce the 
target.  Feeling is the force that draws the strings taut and makes the Name 
reach the Named, the bearer of the Name.
