Guest guest Posted January 29, 2010 Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 Divine guidance of Sai – 7 What is the lesson we can learn from the denizens of the deep sea? The reason all the denizens of the deep sea are happy is that they have water all around them.... above, below, on all sides. They cannot survive even a second outside it.. If they perforce have to come out of it, they struggle frantically to reach water again... being out of it is a disaster. So too, if you are immersed in Divine Peace, you will experience the real joy and exhilaration of that state, constantly. One who has tasted that joy and exhilaration can never tolerate even for a second, the state of asanthi (Lack of Peace). If it ever happens, he will struggle furiously and return to that state of Peace. You must not float on the upper wave of impulses or intentions...You must dive deeper and revel always at the calmer levels. This is the most urgent task. How can we achieve real peace very quickly, without getting 'caught up with the praise and blame game'? Whoever one may be, they have to engage themselves to do some work, whatever it might be. The one who engages in karma (work), renouncing the fruit of all action and following the discipline of silence, can within a short time, realize Divinity.. For such souls, work is like breathing and life is impossible without it. This should be the essential trait for every aspirant. Agitation and restlessness (asanthi) comes only when the fruit of the action is desired. If the fruit is disregarded and joy is derived from the very activity itself, then one gets undisturbed inner peace (prasanthi). No one ever thinks of the results and benefits of doing the karma of breathing...is it not? So too, when work is done, never worry about its result. This will give you real Prasanthi. What are the benefits of attaining Divine Peace? Divine Peace alone will remove the narrow walls that now divide one person from another. It will transform all absurd hatreds, misunderstandings, disgusts and prejudices that warp human behavior. Peace alone is the manifestation of the greatness of Love. That Peace will endow all who come under its authority with tremendous power for good. It can even place God within your grasp and you within God's grasp.
