Guest guest Posted June 15, 2007 Report Share Posted June 15, 2007 Thus Spake The Lord The one Dharma that subsumes all else is: the deed must be in conformity with the word. Don't speak one thing and act another; don't advise others to do a thing which you yourself do not practice. Do not start preaching without practicing. Engage in those activities that will please God, which you feel and know will please God, rather than in activities which will please you. God is pleased with Truth, with Dharma. Dharma guards those who guard it. Know your Dharma and observe it. Earn virtuously, yearn piously; live in fear of God, live for reaching God---that is Dharma. Speak softly, kindly; that is Dharma. Give generously, wisely; wipe the tear and assuage the sigh and the groan; that is Dharma. Do not simply throw money at the needy; give with respect and reverence; give with grace. Give also with humility. Reference: Sathya Sai Speaks; Vol. V, P. 177. Sathya Sai Speaks; Vol. X, P. 220. Sathya Sai Speaks; Vol. V, P. 127.
