Past Sai Messages for the Day

It is only when every moment is cherished as new, will the new year become new. The sacred way in which every moment is spent will determine the fruitfulness of the year.
If you wish to lead a sacred life and have sacred experiences, you must engage yourself in sacred actions. The good and evil in the world can be changed only by the change in men’s actions. The transformation of society must start with the transformation of individuals.

In his 12th year, Jesus and his parents (Joseph and Mary), happened to go to a Jewish festival in Jerusalem. In the jostling crowds Jesus got separated from his parents. After a frantic search, Mary found him in a temple listening to a speech of the High Priest. When Mary told Jesus about the anxiety that they felt when they missed him, Jesus replied: "Why should you worry about me? When I am with God, who is my Father, why should you have any fear on my account?" Jesus thus revealed that he regarded himself as the Son of God.

Jesus grew up at Nazareth till He reached thirty. After Joseph's passing, Jesus sought his mother's permission to embark on his Divine mission. He got baptized by John, the Baptist, and spent forty days in penance in a forest. During the penance, he prayed to God for three things: 1) He should be blessed with the quality of loving equally everyone. 2) He should have the strength and forbearance to suffer patiently any indignity or persecution that he might be subjected to by anyone, and 3) He should be enabled to use his God-given body wholly in the service of God.

Two different characteristics are to be found among men. One characteristic, which is rather common, is for one to delude himself that he is a good man, with many virtues, intelligence and talents. The other quality which is rare, is recognition of the good quality in others, their merits, abilities and good deeds, and appreciate their ideals. Jesus belonged to the second category. He saw the good qualities in others, rejoiced over their virtues and shared his joy with others.

Love is another name of Brahman. In fact, love, atma, prema, aham or brahman, all these names carry the same meaning. There is nothing in this world except love.

You will have everything in life if you have love in you. Do not hate anybody. This should be the main ideal of your life. This is My message for you. Love is My only wealth.

Man is not only invaluable, he is a noble being too. His heart is very valuable, his mind is sweet and his life-principle is eternal. Everyone should recognize this truth and develop sweetness in heart. The most important fortune that you have to aspire for today is love.

Be always saturated with divine love (prema), do not use poisonous words against anyone, for, words wound more fatally than even arrows. Speak soft and sweet, sympathize with suffering and loss and ignorance, try your best to apply the salve of soothing words and timely succour.

If only you observe the disciplines and purify the Consciousness, you can see the God installed in your heart. There is sugar in the cup, but the water is insipid, for you have not stirred it well. There is God in the world, and by stirring the Divine well into every drop or atom thereof, you can make the world a sweet thing to live by. Intelligence is the spoon, spiritual practice (Sadhana) is the process of stirring.

Purity follows unity and from purity, divinity is attained. To attain divinity, you have to cultivate purity and for purity you should live in harmony with all. Only then will you get positive results.

Today in this hall are gathered people from many countries. They speak different languages and adopt different religions and culture and have different dresses, manners and customs.

They are expressing the joy of oneness because of the love in their hearts.

Realize that the love that is present in everyone is common to all. It is love that has brought you all together. It is the cord of love that has bound all of you. It is the unifier, the motivator and the bringer of joy to all. Therefore, develop love.

If you want to be respected by everyone, you should respect everyone. Whether one is rich or poor, noble or ignoble, everyone has self-respect. One should put in effort to safeguard one’s self-respect. One who has true self-respect respects everyone.

God has no preferences and prejudices. His is but reaction, reflection and resound! He comes, to confer Divine Bliss, to foster Divine Bliss, to teach ways of acquiring and activating Divine Bliss. He takes upon Himself the pain and sorrow of the world, in order to prepare the Hearts of men for Love!
Wednesday, December 8, 2021
When there is peace in our heart, we will be able to witness peace all round. Unrest, sorrow, anger, etc., are the reaction, reflection and resound of the state of our inner being. Sorrows and difficulties, anger and unrest are of our own making and creation. They are not natural phenomena in the world.

Love is the foremost quality of a human being. And faith is the basis for that love. The spelling of the word love is LOVE. Here ‘L’ stands for ‘Lord’. Thus, Love is born out of the Lord (God). The entire creation is a manifestation of God’s love, be it a tiny ant or a mighty elephant. Everything is the creation of God.

Where there is faith there is Love. Where there is Love there is Peace. Where there is Peace there is Truth. Where there is Truth there is Bliss. Where there is Bliss there is God. Hence, faith has to be strengthened.

Wherever you may be, in whatever country, do not give room for religious differences. Do not give up religion. Get rid of differences based on religion. Adhere to your faith and your traditions. When differences between religions are given up, love will develop in you. When love grows, you can have a direct vision of God.
