Propagating Devotion
From:
Sri Sathya Sai
Embodiments of the Divine Soul! Even though I am not physically present during the Anniversary of the sacred Guindy temple, which is a center for propagating devotion, I am filled in all your hearts and I am enjoying the bliss of it along with you. I am bestowing my blessings.
It is known to everyone in the present world. There is no fear for sin, and no wish for merit. Sacred values like Truth, Righteousness, Compassion, Love, Non-violence, etc. are being fostered only in words, but not in actions. And Peace and Tolerance are like the distant islands that were lost. Every human being is craving for peace and comfort, but he is not taking necessary steps to attain them. Achievement is possible only when the thought of the mind, expression of the word and creation of the deed are unified. How can the right path be seen when the words and deed are confined only to the tongue? To those who are determined to tread only the right royal road, the nectar of singing the glory of God will be the path of flowers.
It is a sin to sell the most valuable human life for the sake of the coal of mundane desires. Its real price is the ecstasy of God’s name. That is the real fulfilment of life. In this Kali age, only the time that is spent in praising the nectarous name of God is the valuable time. Instead of becoming crazy about mundane desires, it is highly fruitful to develop taste about Divine aspects. The name is the divine nectar that removes the blindness of ignorance and bestows Prajnan and Vijnan. May you all be blessed with this nectar. May you acquire merit. Having being born, may you all hold on to this unique state firmly.
