Guest guest Posted May 13, 2007 Report Share Posted May 13, 2007 Thus Spake The Lord The present situation in the world is like a typhoon, causing unrest and confusion. No one has mental quiet. Fear and anxiety stalk everywhere. Panic reigns even while the conquest of space and the mapping of new planets is being hailed. Even in this country, it is a time of crisis and no time should be lost to set matters right so that man may enjoy peace more than anything else. For without peace, life is a nightmare. There is no training in the art of acquiring mental peace. No one is told the secret of attaining the state of equanimity, amidst the confusion of modern civilization. Everyone is induced to float with the current that drags humanity down to fear, anxiety and despair. While studying other things, you should learn the secret of Peace also. This opportunity should not be missed, for that is the wisdom that will save you. The student should know how to live a contented, peaceful and happy life; that is more important than a degree or a class in examination. The journey into the inner consciousness to calm the storms that rage there is more important than the journey to the Moon or Mars. The latter may be more spectacular, but the former is more beneficial. Life without goodness, good thoughts, good actions, good words, is like sky in the night without the moon or stars. It is like a wheel without hub or spokes. Reference: Sathya Sai Speaks; Vol. I, P. 35-36. Sathya Sai Speaks; Vol. III, P. 158. Sathya Sai Speaks; Vol. VII, P. 145-146.
