Guest guest Posted June 25, 2008 Report Share Posted June 25, 2008 Tuesday, June 25, 2008 Man's life is like a garland, with birth at one end and death at the other. Between the two ends are strung together flowers of all kinds - troubles, worries, joys, sorrows and dreams. Few are aware of the string that runs through all the flowers. Without the string there can be no garland. Only the person who recognises the string can be called a true man. This string is called Brahma-Sutra (The Divine String). The Divine Atmic principle is the string which is found in all human beings and which is the source of all potencies in them. Tuesday, June 24, 2008 Man suffers from numerous ills because he has not understood the purpose of life. The first thing he has to realize is that God is one, by whatever name and in whatever form the Divine is worshipped. The One chose to become the many. The Vedas declare, " God is one; the wise hail Him by many names " . It is the imagination of the observers which accounts for the apparent multiplicity of the Divine. The sun is only one, but its reflection appears in many vessels. Likewise, God is present in the hearts of different beings in varied forms and natures. - Satya Sai Baba As written at PRASANTHI NILAYAM TODAY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
