Guest guest Posted March 8, 2005 Report Share Posted March 8, 2005 After cutting this Ashvattha tree (Samsara) of strong roots with the sharp weapon of non-attachment, one should seek the path, beyond treading which, there is no return. He who loves others disinterestedly, is really enlightend. "I willl show you what you want; but he alone, who believes in what I say, will be successful". No quest can be successfully carried out on an empty stomach. Do not discard offers of food, served dish should not be thrust away. Offers of bread and food should be regarded as an auspicious sign of success. The mind of the faster is never at ease, then how could he attain his paramartha (goal of life) ? If there be no moisture of food in the stomach and nutrition, with what eyes should we describe His greatness, and with what ears should we hear the same? When all our organs get their proper nutrition and are sound, we can practise devotion and other sadhanas to attain God. Where there is greed, there is no room for thought or meditation of the Brahman. For a greedy man there is no peace, neither contentment, nor certainty (Steadiness). If there be even a little trace of greed in mind, all the sadhanas are of no avail. THUS SPAKE SAI Compiled by Raja Krishna Moorthy Published by Sri Sai Baba Bhaktha Samajam (Regd.)
