Those who wholeheartedly worship me and lovingly always serve me, I look after their well-being. This I know to be my motto. There will never be shortage of food and clothing. Therefore do not hanker after them.
One should seek honor at the door of God; and should beg only from God. Ask only for his blessings. Worldly prestige should be left aside.
Why are you satisfied by the honor given to you by the society? Why are you infatuated by this honor? Rather seek through intense devotion to move your chosen deity to compassion and to express your joy through copious streams of Satvik Bhava.
May you find joy in such striving. Let all the faculties be seized with such a devotional urge so that the passions of the senses may be transformed completely and sprout devotional worship. What desire will then remain?
May such devotion be your constant preoccupation leaving no relish fro anything else.
May the mind be engaged in constant chanting of my name and let everything else be forgotten. Then there will be no thought of body, home, and wealth. The heart will be fixed in infinite happiness. The mind will be balanced and serene; and it will find fulfillment in it self.
A contended mind is the surest sign of association with the holy.How can a wandering mind be considered as being surrendered to God?
These are most provocative and reassuring words spoken by Baba and we need to remember them always. If we need to grow spiritually this teaching by Baba is very essential. We cannot just say that we believe in Baba without following his teachings. We have to follow these principles given by Baba so that we can reach ultimate goal of human life that is Self-realization. Then only we will be real Sai devotees.
OM SRI SAIRAM!
