Come and taste the sweetness of sacrifice.

All that you want is none that you need.

The mind only knows "wants."

The self only "wants to give."

Your "wants" make you experience,

A pain of greed and frustration, that only grows.

Your "giving" makes you experience,

A sweet pain of sacrifice.

Make this sweet pain a daily part of your lives.

Remember,

All that you sacrifice today,

Is nothing but a lot of love you collect from all,

All that you want is "not to love."

All that you need is love.

 

From: Sai Darshan by Seema Dewan

 

If the container filled with water is constantly moved, the contents keep 
moving as well.  Similarly, when you move your body around aimlessly, the mind 
also goes to different places.  When the body is moving all the time, the mind 
is also moving.  To control the mind, it is essential to keep the body straight 
and quiet,  then the mind can become straight and quiet.  If you cannot control 
your body, how can you control your mind?
