Sai Inspires - 12th February 2010

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Every night is marked by darkness. But tonight it is Shivarathri (the holy night of Lord Shiva). What is the difference between rathri (night) and Shivarathri? For the man who has recognized his divinity, every night is Shivaraathri. For the man immersed in worldly concerns, all nights are the same. That night is marked by darkness. This night is marked by light. Spirituality is the lighthouse that spreads light for the man who is full of despair, immersed in insatiable desires. The name of God is the lighthouse. By chanting the name, the bearer of the name can be realized. To recognize the omnipresence of the Divine is the purpose of observing Shivaraathri. This purpose is not served by fasting and keeping awake through the night. These are mere auxiliaries to what is considered the ultimate goal. But God-realization should not be put off to some distant future. It has to be taken up here and now. That is the purpose of

Shivaraathri.

-Divine Discourse on Maha Shivarathri, Feb 19, 1993.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I am in you, with you, above you, around you, behind you, always caring for you and protecting you. - Baba
