Guest guest Posted April 20, 2008 Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 sairaam , First of all sai kumar mahadevan , you are very blessed to have ben Swami's student . and still continuing to tell us many many incidences about Swami , esp with students. This group is very much energised by your mails . *********************** sairam . The saying of Swami mailed below is very very enlightenning . Birds need 2 wings . But the most important point here is both the wings cannot operate seperately , cannot be of different weight or intensity and power . Same also . When Swami says ' LOVE AND KNOWLEDGE ' are the wings .!! If we simply love , and sit lazily and do nothing , there is no forward movement in life . KNOWLEDGE OF EQUAL ' flutter ' to the love energy should be perfectly in co-relation to the love shown , as we pass through each event of our life . Then again . The 'tail wing ' of the bird makes it turn to the direction in which it has to move forward . Same also . 'MEDITATION ' Without meditation , the direction and balance of forward movement of the life-events will not be perfect !! Meditation is simply ' not thinking ' or 'being in silence of the mind and consequently , of our emotions ' . The conclusive meaning that Swami wants us to understand is : LOVE . NOT BLINDLY . USE YOUR KNOWLEDGE AS AN EQUAL WING TO THE WING OF THAT LOVE. THEN KEEP SILENT IN MIND AND EMOTIONS OFTEN . THE FORMER(wings-love and knowledge) WILL MAKE YOUR LIFE MOVE POSITIVELY FORWARD. THE LATTER ( tail wing- meditation ) WILL IMBIBE GOD INTO YOUR CONSCIOUSNESS AND SHOW YOU THE MANY PATHWAYS OF LIFE YOU SHOULD PURSUE . sairaam sairaam sairaam sai rukmani --- On Sun, 13/4/08, kumar mahadevan <mahadevan12 wrote: kumar mahadevan <mahadevan12 Bhakthisaibabanews , Date: Sunday, 13 April, 2008, 10:57 AM A man's actions can be compared to the flight of a Bird, which needs three things to Fly –two wings and a tail– for its graceful movement. By means of the wings it balances itself in the air, and by the tail, like the rudder in a boat, it keeps its course. In a Human being, love and knowledge are the two wings, and meditation the tail. When these function in harmony, Human beings become one with the Divine. This is the Highest Form of Bhakti. - Swami Explore your hobbies and interests. Click here to begin.
