There is nothing wrong in walking the right path - Swami

[Guest guest]

You must dive deep into the sea to get the pearls. What

good is it to dabble among the waves near the shore and swear that the

sea has no pearls in it and that all tales of its existence are false.

So also if you must realise the full fruit of this Avathaar, dive deep

and get immersed in Sai Baaba. Half-heartedness, hesitation, doubt,

cynicism, listening to tales, all are of no avail. Concentrated

complete faith - that alone can bring victory. This is true to any

worldly activity, is it not? How much more true must it be, therefore

in the spiritual field? But if you have already attached yourselves to

some one name and form, do not change it, do not choose another in

place of the Prema swaruupam (embodiment of love). A

hundred people might come to your house and even treat you with

affection, but you do not address them as Pappa or daddy. Have your

mind fixed on one; do not now and then allow

clouds of doubt, like "Is He great?Is He God?" to dim your faith. Be

bold. Acknowledge the glory that you have witnessed; proclaim the joy

that you have experienced; confess to the grace that you have earned. When

people ask you whether you too are going to Puttaparthi, for example,

and whether you too are doing Bhajana, say "Yes" proudly, for there is

no shame in walking on the right path! - From Swami's Akanda Bhajan Discourse, 10th July' 1959.Om Sai Ram
