Sai Inspires from Prasanthi Nilayam - May 01, 2025
Narration
Translated
Why should we attach ourselves to the Lord and adore Him always? Bhagawan lovingly reminds each and every one of us of the purpose of His advent and our goal today!
God is Mahashakti (supreme energy) and jeeva (individual being) is Mayashakti (deluding power); He is the genuine, the jiva is but the shadow, the appearance, the delusion. Even I have to put on Mayashakti to come into your midst, like the policeman who is compelled to wear the dress of the thief, so that he can get entry into the gang of thieves to apprehend them and bring them to book! The Lord cannot come down with His Mahashakti unimpaired; He has to come with diminished splendour and limited effulgence, so that He can become the object of Bhakti and dedicated service. In this world, which is impermanent and ever-transforming, the immanent power of the Lord is the only permanent and fixed entity. To realise the eternal and the true, one must attach oneself to that source and sustenance. There is no escape from this path. It is the destiny of one and all, irrespective of age or scholarship, clime or caste, gender or status.
- Divine Discourse, Aug 01, 1956
"
Fill your thoughts with love and proceed on the path of sacrifice. Then you will never be affected by Maya. - BABA
