Selected Quotes of Swami : "The Inward Path" Lit-up by Swami

Om Sri Sathya Sai Ganeshaaya Namaha !

(A) NEARNESS TO ME is not acquired by physical nearness. I am the Divine Spirit

dwelling in every heart.

(B) ALL LIFE IS A PRISON, whatever the difference between one type of a sentence

and another. It is so, as long as the attitude of identifying the Self with the

body is there.

© ARGUMENT THAT the spiritual path is for the individual only and that society

should not be involved in it is like insisting that there should be light inside

the house and saying that it does not matter if there is darkness outside.

Devotion towards God goes ill with hatred towards fellow man.

(D)

THE DAWN OF PEACE can be brought about only by learning, practising and teaching

the art of living together in peace and amity in the home. Then peace can be

established in the world without delay and travail. Let Satsanga start with

your home.

 

Selected Quotes of Swami : "The Inward Path" Lit-up by Swami

 

Om Sri Sathya Sai Ganeshaaya Namaha !

 

(A) AFTER LONG SEARCHES here and there, in temples and in churches, in earth and

in heavens, at last you come back, completing the circle from where you started,

to your own Soul and find that He, for Whom you were seeking all over the World,

for Whom you have been weeping and praying in churches and in temples, Whom you

were looking upon as the mystery of all mysteries shrouded in the clouds, is

the nearest of the near, is your own Self, the reality of our life, body and

soul.

 

(B) ANYONE WHO IS ENGAGED IN PRAYER, worship and discipline and who has self

control, faith, patience, kindness, joy and pure love towards Me is precious to

Me.

 

Selected Quotes of Swami : "The Inward Path" Lit-up by Swami

 

Om Sri Sathya Sai Ganeshaaya Namaha !

 

(A) THE ONE GRAND reason for maintaining health, which I am urging you to do, is that you have

yet to witness and delight over many more Lilas (spontaneous, self motivated,

surprising acts) and Mahimas (expressions and manifestations of Divine

qualities) far surpassing those you have witnessed so far, and many wonders,

victories and triumphs. You can thrill with ecstatic delight when you witness

these. So guard yourself carefully. Maintain good health and keep your hearts

ever filled with joy.

 

(B) DEATH STALKS your footsteps like a tiger in the bush. So without further

waste of time, endeavour to give up sloth and anger, be tranquil amidst the

storms, mix in tranquil company. Let the fragrant smoke of Divine thoughts

full of love to all, rise around you.

 

Sairam to all Sai Sisters and Brothers ! ! !
