Today, desires are growing at an alarming pace. Even if people are about to die in a couple of minutes, they still express some desire or the other! What are these desires? What are you gaining from these? Nothing! On the other hand, if you had no desires, you would be so very peaceful. You may believe it or not, I have no desires within Me. That is why I have no worries. Follow Me! When you too have no desires your heart will be blissful. When desires go down, automatically the mind is turned toward God. Desires only imprison you; they don’t set you free as you think. Today, controls are being exercised on everything except the mind and desires. It is the desires that must first be controlled. This will give you a great deal of peace. You will be surprised to see so much peace in yourself. Peace is natural to you and will arise on its own, once desires are controlled.

Devotion is referred to as upasana, which means dwelling near, feeling the Presence, or sharing the sweetness of Divinity. The yearning for upasanaprompts you to go on pilgrimages, to construct and renovate temples, and to consecrate images. All this is karma of a high order; they lead to spiritual wisdom. First, start with the idea, “I am in the Light.” Then the feeling, “The light is in me,” becomes established, leading to the conviction, “I am the Light.” That is supreme wisdom. A dog caught in a room of mirrors sees all its myriad reflections as not itself but as rivals, competitors, and other dogs that must be barked at. So it tires itself out by jumping on these reflections, and when the images also jump, it becomes mad with fury. A wise person, however, sees oneself everywhere and is at peace, even happy that there are so many reflections all around. That is the attitude you must learn to possess, that will save you from needless bother.

You are born in this vast universe. You are living in this wide world. So, you should have broad feelings. Man, living in this vast world, should not have narrow feelings. It is wrong to find faults in others. There may be faults in them. But do not see their faults, see their good qualities. Then the entire universe becomes one family. This is the spirit of ‘brotherhood of man and fatherhood of God’. Such feelings promote universal brotherhood. Mamai Vamso Jeevaloke Jeevabhuta Sanatana (the eternal Atma in all beings is a part of My Being). The Divine is the source of the entire creation. He is the creation, the Creator and the director of the universe. Divinity is invisible. It cannot be understood. Recognise that you all are the reflections of the Divine. Then you will not hate anyone or feel jealous of anyone; you will be free from egotism. Source…….http://media.radiosai.org/

We need not set out to search for God. Wherever there is truth, God appears. Where Narayana appears, His consort Lakshmi, the goddess of plenty and prosperity, also appears. Hence if you want wealth, you have to take the first step! When you succeed in installing Lord Narayana in your heart, goddess Lakshmi follows her Master into your heart. There is plenty of grace that God can give you. But it is at a depth! Some effort is required to obtain it. If you need to fetch water from a well, you need to tie a rope to a bucket, lower it into the well, and draw the water out. You are neither tying the rope to the bucket nor lowering the bucket into the well, so water is therefore not reaching you. The rope to use is that of devotion. This rope must be tied to the vessel of your heart and lowered into the well of God’s grace. What you receive from the well, when the water is drawn out, is the water of pure bliss.

The story of Rukmini Kalyana (marriage of Rukmini to Lord Krishna) is the story of the union of Purusha (the Supreme Spirit) with Prakriti (creation, the objective world) itself. Rukmini is the individual self (jiva), and Krishna is the Supreme Self (Paramatma). She suffers from the rules and restrictions imposed by the objective world; egoism is her brother, worldliness is her father. But on account of her good conduct, her mind rested on God. Her prayers, repentance, yearning, and steadfastness were amply rewarded. The parents, brother and all the relatives objected, but an individual is born to work out their destiny, not to act a role in someone else’s drama. One is born to serve out one’s sentence; when the sentence ends, one is free. You shall not remain in prison on the pretext that a dear comrade is still in! Just think of this fact: Rukmini had not met Krishna before; there was no preliminary wooing. The soul yearned, and it won.
