What Swami Expects From You

Dear Children,

Receive My blessings. Though I have left you and moved away physically, to those who have recognised and realized the truth of My Being, I am always in them, with them, and around them in My love form. Their experience itself is the proof.

I have placed and pinned all My hopes on you. I am hoping that you will fulfil all My aspirations. I am blessing you thus. I would never like you to pursue insignificant, worthless studies to earn mere praise. My hope and wish is that you would undertake that education which is truth itself so that you may secure and experience ever-lasting peace, thereby showing to the world an out-of-ordinary ideal. In this world, there are lakhs of colleges which impart education devoid of any value or significance. Why then should I spend enormous amount of effort to establish colleges?

One reason to bring you here on the pretext of imparting worldly education is that your parents and your own selves have a particular fascination for such an education in one hand. On the other, it is the Sai sankalpa to fill your hearts and minds with Adhyatmic education, which actually is the basis for worldly studies.

Along with the spiritual education, Arthi education, Artharthi education and Jignasa education (Atmic) are also absolutely and vitally necessary. Jnana is that which is made up of these three. Jnana is the very essence of education. Jignasa is the love (juice in a fruit) and Artharthi is the pulp while Arthi is the skin of the fruit. There cannot be a fruit without skin, pulp and juice. Is it not?

So one should be desirous of tasting the sweetness of the fruit with the skin, pulp and juice. If you become such juicy fruits (Rasa Swaroopa) made up of these three entities, Sai will accept juice and exhibit it to the whole world.

If in these 160 fruits, at least some were to become such fruits, it will be possible to have the entire world in one’s grip. You should become the offering itself (naivedya) to Swami. You should become one with Swami. You should stand by Swami as His companion, like His shadow. I am in need of such persons. They are the very embodiments of My love. They are ‘I’, ‘I am they’. You should become such that you will foster the world in respect of the body, the mind and the spirit. You should behave in consonance with Swami’s ideals and aspirations. It is only then that you will have brought comfort and happiness to your parents, to the world and Sai.

Bangarulu, at least from today become the pure, clean and unsullied embodiments of love by keeping Swami’s wish as the yardstick. Visualize the Lokesha (the Lord) in this insignificant worldly education—the loka-vidhya (the worldly education); visualize the Divine consciousness (chitta) in this insignificant worldly education. Experience and enjoy the Sath—Chit—Ananda Swaroopa (the Divine Being).

Get immersed in the Sath—Chit—Ananda and attain Sai. Realise that the essence of all education is just this and pursue your studies. You should also be bound by a code of discipline. Sai will protect you, foster you, caress you, cajole you, comfort you and Love you.

Your Hridaya Sai
