Guest guest Posted November 4, 2007 Report Share Posted November 4, 2007 Thus Spake The Lord Man should not die like a cat or a dog. He should leave the world better and happier than when he came into it. He must get away, full of gratitude for the chance given to him to see God in everything that he saw, touched, smelled and tasted. He must remember the Lord with his last breath. To get that recollection, a lifetime of practice is needed. When you are at the steering wheel, you may be hearing the talk going on inside the car and even join in it; you may be doing many things, but your attention will always be on the road ahead. When the mother returns from the well with three pots one over the other on her head, talking to her companions, her mind is concentrated on the baby in the cradle which she has left at home. So too, when you are engaged in the various duties and obligations of the world, never allow your attention to stray away from God, the Goal. Be always attentive to the signs of His Glory and His Mercy and His Omnipresence. Cultivate the habit of remembering the Lord with every breath; then only can you remember Him with the last breath. Reference: Sathya Sai Speaks; Vol. III, P. 173. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
