Guest guest Posted July 23, 2009 Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 So Says Sai The parents gave you this body and fostered the intelligence and Love that are embedded in it, so gratitude is their due. If you do not honor the parents, who are the creators in human form, how can you learn to honor the creator in Divine Form? Source: Sathya Sai Speaks Vol. VI. P. 64. Respect for parents who started you in life and brought you into this world to gather the vast and varied treasure of experience is the first lesson that Dharma teaches. Gratitude is the spring which feeds that respect. Source: Sathya Sai Speaks Vol. IV. P. 18. The first step in Dharma is gratitude; the first duty of the child is reverence to the parents. When the first step is absent, ascent is impossible. Source: Sathya Sai Speaks Vol. VI. P. 52. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
