Do Not Waste Time

My Dear Boys!

Accept My love. Sai is Infinite Love. It is this love that pervades and appears as the universe around us. This love is seated ever in your hearts. So you are not different from the universe: the Universe is Sai, your Sathya Sai, Prema Sai.

My Boys! Think for yourselves how much time you waste in talking unnecessarily. If you keep a strict watch over yourselves, you will find that your actual working hours are only a few. Daily you spend 8 to 10 hours in sleep, while you need only 6 hours. Besides, whenever you are free from work, you can keep your mind engaged in the remembrance of Sai (God), and have His pure and glorious name on your lips. You can also chant the name as you walk along. If only you make up your mind, you can find ample time during the day to remember Him.

Fill your mind with high thoughts and the highest ideals. Keep them in your mind day and night and out of that will come great work. Talk not about impurity but say that you are pure. You have hypnotised yourselves into this thought that you are little; that you are born and you are going to die, and live in a constant state of fear. My dears! Your Sai is always with you, in you, around you. Do not fear. Be Happy.

With Love and Blessings,

Baba.
