Message For the Day… Faith Develops into Love and Love Results in Concentration..

NatarajanLeave a comment

A person driving a car may concentrate on the road, anxious to save oneself and others from accident. Fear is what induces single-mindedness in this case. But Love is a greater force to aid concentration. Steady and resolute love makes one’s concentration become intense and unshakeable. Faith develops into love and love results in concentration. Prayer is possible and begins to yield fruit, under such conditions. Pray, using the Name as a symbol of the Lord; pray keeping all the waves of the mind stilled. Pray, as the performance of a duty for your very real existence, as the only justification for your coming into the world, as man.

Message For The Day….”One Must Have Ananda in The Heart “….

NatarajanLeave a comment
 Sathya Sai Baba

Just like a fish which can live only when it is immersed in water, when it feels the element all around it, so too man is a being that can live only when immersed in ananda (bliss); one must have ananda not merely at home, in society and in the world but more than all, in the heart. As a matter of fact, the ananda in the heart produces ananda all around; the heart is the spring of joy. That spring has to be touched by constant meditation, recitation and the intermittent dwelling on the glory, the grace and the inexhaustible manifestations of the Lord, that is, smarana, chethana and manana. Hold fast to the goal; the devotee should never turn back. Never give way to doubt or despair.

 

“It Does not Matter if the Glass is Half empty or Half full “…..

Is Your Cup Half Full or Half Empty?
If you approach each day with a smile, see the goodness in people, and make lemonade out of lemons, then you are a “half-full person.” You don’t care if it’s going to rain because the clouds are so beautiful. If you’re stuck in traffic, you enjoy the music or your passenger’s company. But if you approach your day with a negative attitude and notice or experience more bad than good, then your approach is half empty. You are your own worst enemy: you sabotage your own fun and your own joy of life. So cut it out. Retrain yourself to notice only the good things in any situation until you rid yourself of this horrible habit. Don’t be a dream killer . . . for yourself or anyone else.
There is always someone else worse off than you. Look around you: your life is full of blessings. Make a list of things you are thankful for: your sight, health, family, food, shelter, a pet, your kids, friends, a good book. If you could even get out of bed this morning, then you are blessed. Do not take all this good fortune for granted. Be thankful for all these blessings.
Try not to use negative words too much like hate, disgusting, sick, ugly, etc.” Notice how things have improved in the world, in your town, in your life. Look for beauty. Try not to be sarcastic. Sarcasm is a “put-down “of something or someone. The way you act in the world is basically a habit. You can retrain your behavior and your thinking, and you will benefit by doing so. Being considerate, kind, and positive is contagious and worth the investment.
Did you get my point or do you want me to come again !!!
If you give love and kindness to others, you will probably find yourself overflowing with love and happiness. But if you give bitterness, cynicism, and negativity, that is what you will attract. In the mirror of life, you are reflected back, so let your goodness shine out.
Even though we are surrounded with love and positive things every day, the negative side of life seems to get a lot more publicity. Too many negative images sap us of our optimism. So don’t make a constant diet of negative people, newscasts, angry music, violent movies, and conflict. (Kids do not benefit from watching too many news shows and violence on TV.) Surround yourself with happy, positive people and situations whenever you can.
Laugh at yourself. Send funny cards to people. Watch funny movies. Enjoy yourself and have some fun (just not at anyone’s expense). Laughter can cure what ails you and make life fun. It’s very good medicine.
Everyone is attracted to happy people. They make us feel better. You can be one of those people. You’ll cheer up both yourself and those around you. Besides, frowning makes wrinkles.

Message For the Day…”Everything is HIS ..That is the Eternal Truth “…

NatarajanLeave a comment

Shed the feeling of ‘mine’ and ‘yours!’ – these attitudes are only for temporary identification. Everything is ‘His’ – that is the eternal truth. Be like the headmaster of a school who takes temporary charge of the furniture in the school. The headmaster treats the furniture with diligence and hands over the items when he is transferred or retired. Treat all people and objects, entrusted and endowed to you with due care and diligence as the headmaster treats the furniture. Be always aware that they do not belong to you! Be always aware that the final checking-up is imminent. Have your accounts ready for inspection and handover, and be ready; wait for that moment with joy!

” You Have Nothing To Fear”….

NatarajanLeave a comment
The Divine Promise
Friday November 22nd, 2013
You have nothing to fear
Nothing to lose
Nothing to bear
Nothing to choose…
There is nothing to plan
Nothing to worry
There is nothing to ask
There is no need to hurry…
A little voice in the heart
Shall speak to you of faith
The truth in your soul
Shall take you safely across your fate…
There is no one beside you
Other than Me
I alone am the only friend
Know that and be free…
Why the tear
Why the pain
Why the doubt
Why the blame
Stand… Believe and Create the principle
Cherish… Hold and Sustain being simple…
Why the journey to seek My grace
Just touch your heart with the thought of love
And you shall feel My embrace
I am always there
Where you shall remember Me
I am there in a moment
Doing what is best
Doing until the end
Doing the rest…
Ask not why…
When…
And where…
I know
And that is what matters most
Try not to see
What I see
Close your eyes
And believe
That you are safe.
Then you shall see My grace
All else shall come to pass
And while the world wonders
Of your faith
You shall smile
And share the love
That you have received
From Me
By just believing…
Believe I say…
Believe, for faith is the food of your soul
Believe and take the step
Knowing that I am
In front
Behind
And by your side.
Believe in nothing
That you see, hear, feel, and speak
Believe that you are
In My presence
And the fear
That has trapped you
Shall turn to dust.
The heart of love
Shall behold My word
And My word shall carry
Its wisdom
To the good…
The kind…
And the simple-minded.
And all will fall in place
For what I have willed
Shall come to be…
Grace is knowing that
There can be no thought
Other than that of Mine
And My mysterious ways…
I bless you
That there can be no wrong
If you have teared for My grace
Your every tear of devotion
Shall turn
To the pearl of knowledge
For when you come to know Me
Through your heart
You shall taste the nectar of grace
That I shall pour upon you
Moment to moment.
I have come only to bless
Only to save you
Only to love you
Only to be with you…
My existence is
Simply to be
Wherever you are
However you are
I can reach you
Even before time has moved
And all of My tasks
Are completed
Even before
You can think to attempt
to do
Something for My sake…
Even that thought
Is My grace
For I have already completed
What you wish to do for Me
I can make you My instrument
To serve Me
Only so you can be
In the bliss of love
For loving Me
Is
Loving yourself.
My hand is always
Upon your head
Whether you have chosen Me or not
You are My Child of Eternity
And that is where
Everything begins
And everything ends…

Message For The Day…”Serve anyone in Need With Full Heart and Experience The Resultant JOY”

NatarajanLeave a comment

Service is the highest penance and serving any living being is to serve Him. Many do acts of service as ‘social service’, not as aSadhana (spiritual act). Through Seva Sadhana, Hanuman attained identity with Rama, just as the river attains identity with the sea. Arjuna too considered his every act as Sadhana to attain Lord Krishna’s grace. He followed Krishna’s counsel, “Mamanusmara Yuddhyacha – fight, ever keeping Me in mind.” You too should keep God ever in your mind as the pace-setter for every task you do. Serve anyone in need with a full heart and experience the resultant joy. It may be small and even unnoticed by others, but must be done to please the God within you. Every act of genuine Seva attracts the Grace of God.

“Ensure You Have not Lost Things That Money Can”t Buy …”

NatarajanLeave a comment

We often find time and reasons to let our loved ones know that we did not like their behaviour , their attitude ,  their thoughts and uselessly point fingers at them. But today, Lets all do something different. Let us remove some time from our busy lives to tell  our friends and our loved ones that we care for them and they hold a very special place in our lives. We appreciate their presence in our lives. Life is short and your time with everyone around you is limited. So make sure that you have not lost anything that money will never be able to buy or perhaps even replace… 
 May the blessings of Sai baba always be with us to make us appreciate the presence of our near and dear ones in our lives..
Quote of BABA:
If one meditates on Me, repeats my name, sing my deeds and thus is transformed into Me, his karma is destroyed. I will stay by his side always.

Message for the Day…Education and Educare …

NatarajanLeave a comment

What is education? It is of two types: The first type is collection of facts and knowledge about the external world, and sharing them with students. The second type is educare. Educare involves the deep understanding of the knowledge that springs from within, and imparting it to students. But today’s education gives knowledge only about the external world. Only culture or refinement can develop good personality and not this type of education. So only if education is blended with culture, it will shine forth as true education. What is culture? It is the cultivation of discrimination between good and evil, sin and merit, and truth and untruth that we experience in our daily life. It is also removal of one’s evil thoughts, feelings and qualities, and cultivation of good thoughts, feelings and qualities. Not only this, culture makes one broad-minded.

” Sometime We Need Someone to be Simply be There “….

NatarajanLeave a comment

 

People say, I want someone to be there for me. They forget that God is always there for us. People say, I want someone to care for me. They forget that God cares even when we forget Him.
Fall in love with Him, He will hold you, He will protect you, He will care for you, He will always be there for you  
May Sai always bless us with his love, compassion , kindness , protection and above all the grace to appreciate and recognize his Leela’s in our life..

 

Quote of BABA:
I have to take care of my children day and night and give an account to God of every paisa. The wise are cheerful and content with their lot in life.
