Guest guest Posted January 2, 2006 Report Share Posted January 2, 2006 prosperity be established on the earth. To enjoy peace of mind, it is essential to practice forbearance and equanimity. Men today are affected by praise or blame. But one who is filled with Divine love transcends praise or censure. He is unaffected by criticism or flattery. He treats joy and sorrow, profit and loss, victory and defeat alike. Sow love and it will blossom as compassion and tolerance and will yield the fruit of peace. Jesus was great because he showed the value of spiritual discipline and the equanimity that can come through it. You cannot sit back, and expect Jesus to bring peace and joy into you. Jesus came to warn, to guide, to awaken, to lay down the path, and shed the light of love on it. But, you have to listen, learn and obey with hope and faith. Spiritual practice is the only means of acquiring mental peace. Peace-lessness is caused by involvement in exteral experiences ignoring the Self within. To experience the Self within is peace. - Sri Sathya Sai Baba From the book "Be Like Jesus" : The Good News of Jesus in the words of Sri Sathya Sai Baba Compiled by William and Debra Miller.Send instant messages to your online friends http://in.messenger.
