Drop the delusion that you have become old or diseased, or that you have become weak and debilitated. Some people begin to count the years and grieve over advancing age and shudder like cowards afraid of death. But remember, elation is heaven, despondency is hell. Have always some work to do, and do it well that you will get joy.

β€œ
Whatever talent a person has should be dedicated to the rest of humanity - indeed to all living beings. Therein lies fulfillment. All men are kin. They are of the same likeness, the same build, molded out of the same material, with the same divine essence in each. Service to man will help your divinity to blossom, for it will gladden your heart and make you feel that life has been worth while. Service to man is service to God, for He is in every man, and every living being, in every stone and stump. Offer your talents at the feet of God. Let every act be a flower, free from the creeping worms of envy and egoism and full of the fragrance of love and sacrifice.

The moment you resent a person, you become his slave. Living with resentment is like drinking poison and expecting the other guy to get sick. The person who is the focus of your animosity may be feeling just fine, enjoying life, and not troubled while you are letting them rent space in your brain. Resentment gives you illusions of strength.

Sathya Sai Baba (Tablets of Truth: Sayings of Sai Baba)
β€œ
- […] Va voi spune simplu ca trebuie sa traiti numai pentru ca viata e frumoasa in sine. Nu exista in lume decat un singur lucru foarte grav si de nevindecat: moartea! Restul poate si trebuie vindecat, chiar si dragostea cea mai adevarata si infocata, ca de exemplu, cea pe care o traiti voi acum! D’Assas scutura din cap cu o violenta disperata. -Imi vorbiti asa pentru ca voi n-ati iubit niciodata! zise el. Saint-Germain surase… -Ce numiti voi iubire? zise el cu o gravitate si mai pregnanta. Ascultati-ma bine. Poate ma veti intelege, pentru ca sunteti unul din sufletele cele mai generoase pe care le-am intalnit. Pentru umanitate in ansamblul sau, iubirea e o forma de egoism. Un barbat iubeste o femeie. Ceea ce vrea sa insemne ca o doreste; in felul asta doreste posesia; vrea neaparat ca acea femeie sa-i apartina in exclusivitate. Daca femeia e venala, o cumpara ca pe o statuie sau orice alt obiect de lux. Daca e onesta, se straduieste sa-i demonstreze ca trebuie sa-i apartina numai lui, si de buna voie. Una peste alta, vrea sa puna mana pe ea. E o opera de cucerire in felul barbarilor din antichitate. Dovada: chinurile iubirii se micsoreaza, disparand aproape cu totul daca femeia vizata nu se da nimanui. Ceea ce se cheama gelozie nu-i decat expresia acestui egoism de o factura deosebita… Barbatul cauta deci mai ales sa-si satisfaca propriul sau apetit de cuceritor si de proprietar atunci cand afirma ca iubeste. Iubirea, asta inseamna: vreau. Vreau acest obiect: bronz, marmura sau femeie. Pentru mine, numai pentru mine! Asa vreau eu. Si atunci spun ca o iubesc! Cat imi e de mila!... -Asa deci, murmura d’Assas, exista si o alta forma de iubire!... -Da, iubirea exista! E adevarat. E mai pretioasa decat comorile lui Ali-Baba! Dar, ma rog, ea exista. Putini barbati o cunosc. Este aproape la fel de greu de gasit un barbat care iubeste, pe cat e de greu de gasit o femeie care sa merite a fi iubita. Dar se mai intampla! -Si cum e dragostea asta de care vorbiti? intreba cavalerul. -Iubirea aceasta, zise atunci contele, este forma cea mai perfecta a devotamentului, adica tocmai contrariul a ceea ce vulgul considera a fi iubire. A iubi o femeie nu inseamna decat a dori cu ardoare fericirea ei, si nu fericirea ta. Intelegeti ce vreau sa spun? -Da… sau cel putin cred ca da, zise d’Assas. -Iubesc o femeie. Iata ce inteleg prin asta: daca aceasta femeie ma cheama in ajutor, voi fi in stare si de muncile lui Hercule, voi face sa tremure si cerul si pamantul ca sa-i asigur fericirea… dar daca ea se indeparteaza de mine… daca simpatia ei se indreapta spre un altul… -Ei bine? -Ei bine, pentru ca o iubesc… pentru ca am consimtit sa-i asigur fericirea, nu numai ca nu voi fi un obstacol intre ea si barbatul alea… dar chiar ma voi bucura vazand ca a gasit fara mine acea fericire pe care pretindeam ca i-o aduc. -Ingrozitoare teorie! -Spuneti ca e ingrozitoare pentru ca nu ati gustat farmecul nesfarsit al devotamentului pur, al sacrificiului care nu asteapta recompensa… Eu, care am cunoscut toate formele iubirii, de la gelozia care nutreste ganduri criminale pana la disperarea ce naste ganduri de sinucidere, va spun ca numai in devotement e iubire!... D’Assas, visator, asculta cuvintele lui Saint-Germain care, putin cate putin, ii alinau durerea si o faceau mai usor de suportat. Poate contele nu avea alt scop decat acela de a-si expune teoria sa cu privire la iubire. Cavalerul, cum o spusese si Saint-Germain, era cu adevarat un suflet generous. Incepuse sa intrezareasca posibilitatea de a se devota fericirii Jeannei; incetul cu incetul ideea sinuciderii incepea sa piarda teren. Caci cuvintele contelui incolteau si dadeau roade. β€œUn singur lucru e nevindecabil: moartea!” Caci murind, nu se condamna singur sa nu o mai vada pe Jeanne?

easily understood by the lay person. But this was a time of unrest for Swamiji, and he began a long period of wandering. He first traveled to Maharashtra, the neighboring state bordering Karnataka to the north. At that time he also visited the holy city of Pandharpur, as well as the samadhi shrines of the great saints Jnaneshwar (at Alandi), and Sai Baba (at Shirdi). One day, sometime in 1929, he was seen for the first time in the small town of Yeola, just a short distance north of Shirdi. He appeared wearing only a loincloth and had a green shawl wrapped around his shoulders. He

For example, you could spend your life studying the β€œUrantia Book” which I happen to like, however, does it serve GOD’s purpose more to spend your life studying the β€œUrantia Book” or being in the world loving and serving? I always remember the words of His Holiness the Lord Sai Baba, who said β€œHands that help are holier than lips that pray.

In truth, you don’t see with your eyes, you see with your mind. This is why Sai Baba has said that β€œYour mind creates bondage, or your mind creates liberation.” You will have negative emotions if you think with your negative ego mind. You will have positive emotions if you think with your Spiritual Mind. Your thoughts create your feelings, emotions, behavior, and physical health or lack thereof.

Love Quotient The second major spiritual quotient to become an β€œIntegrated Christ” is building your love quotient. On a psychological level, your love quotient is built by demonstrating unconditional love in your daily life, in all your personal and impersonal relationships. A person cannot realize GOD or the Christ/Buddha Consciousness without this quotient, regardless of your level of initiation. My beloved readers, it is also possible to increase your love quotient by calling on GOD and the Cosmic and Planetary Masters to infuse you with love quotient from the spiritual plane. You can do this by calling forth a love shower. I warn you my beloved friends, this is a type of spiritual source you might become addicted to. You can also ask for a light shower and/or a light and love shower. This combination of your demonstration of unconditional love at all times in your daily life, and calling upon GOD and the Masters to infuse you with love through your spiritual channel or crown chakra, increases your love quotient level. The Masters and I especially recommend calling upon the following beings to build your love quotient: the Divine Mother, the Archangels, the Lord Sai Baba, Melchizedek, The Mahatma, Lord Maitreya, Sananda, Mother Mary, Quan Yin, Lord Buddha, Paul the Venetian, Isis and Vesta.

It was well known that Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, were acolytes of Sathya Sai Baba, an Indian guru who died in 2011. They had traveled to India to visit the guru and kept an altar to him in their home. I asked Porras if he was talking about Maduro’s attachment to Sai Baba. It was more than that, he said. β€œThere are two things. He believes in predestination, in fate. Everything that’s going to happen has already been written. There’s not much you can do about it, and it’s already going to happen anyway. And he believes in signs. When Maduro was foreign minister, he was always in a good mood and there was no way to stress him out. He told me more than once that if something was going to turn out badly, he would know because he would have received a sign.

God doesn’t get sick so neither need you, since you are God. So what causes sickness? It is the negative ego. Sai Baba says that β€œGod equals man minus ego.” The ego doesn’t exist in God’s reality and ideally, it shouldn’t exist in yours. When you get rid of the negative ego you recognize that you are perfect

As Sai Baba says, you will not achieve God-realization unless you die to the negative ego, which is fearful, separative, and selfish. When you die to the lower self’s way of thinking and are reborn to your higher self’s way of thinking, then you will realize God. This is the main curriculum of the spiritual path, regardless of which particular route or teacher you choose to follow. Contrary to what other people might say, you do not need negative emotions. They are created by the mind. They do not come from outside of yourself or from your instincts. They come from your interpretations, perceptions, and beliefs about reality. Did not Buddha say, in the four noble truths, that all suffering comes from β€œwrong points of view.

There is the rather strange coincidence of that at Shirdi, Sakori and Meherabad, the deaths of the venerated saints were believed to change nothing for the devotees. The venerated deceased entities were somehow still alive. Rivalries between sects continued, one difference being that there was no stress on miracles at Meherabad. If one is prepred to credit in any way the relevance of Shirdi Sai, Upasni Maharaj and Meher Baba as mystics, then it is evident that their teachings differed. Their policies differed also. Such details tend to confound the issue of a 'perennial philosophy' as popularly promoted by various writers. One possible conclusion afforded is that the underlying impact of the saint/master is circumscribed by audience capacities, and shaped by some extent by their own temperament.
