Sai Inspires from Prasanthi Nilayam - July 08, 2023
Narration
Translated
His Voice
Original
What is the assurance Swami has given each one of His devotees and what is the commitment He expects from us? Bhagawan lovingly reminds us today.
Swami's Prema (Divine Love) has no trace of self-interest in it. It is absolutely pure. Swami knows only how to give, not how to receive. Swami's hand is held above for conferring something, not stretched for seeking anything. Moreover, once Swami has declared, "You are Mine", whatever wrong ways they may pursue, Swami will not abandon them. It may be asked why anyone who has been accepted by Swami as "You are Mine," should be subject to hardships and troubles. These troubles are the consequences of their own karma. They have to see that their conduct is right. If, supposing, the Lord blesses a man with a hundred years of life, he should not get puffed up with pride and start jumping from a tree in the confidence that he will live for a century. He may live for a hundred years, but may have his leg broken in the fall. So, in accepting the blessing of God, one should also try to lead a righteous life.
- Divine Discourse, Jul 13, 1984.

Whatever you do, wherever you are, remember that I am with you, in you; that will save you from conceit and error. – BABA
