Message For The Day…. “Every Single Individual in the Planet is Divine “…

NatarajanLeave a comment

Usually when you are asked where God is, you point to the sky or some distant place of worship and say He is there, as if He is just a person and has a definite place of Residence. Every single individual in the planet is essentially Divine. It is delusion that has induced one who is Naraayana swarupa (embodiment of God) to imagine and behave as if he is just a nara (human). To remove that delusion, there are various means suited to the needs of each sufferer. But all the treatment and all the struggle is to achieve the experience of being Naraayana, and discard the limited, bound, and relative entity, nara. That is the one harvest yielded by all the various processes. Until one understands oneself, the delusion and the resultant grief cannot be ended. Make use of this precious opportunity, invest time to understand yourself.

” Live Simply…Walk Humbly…and Love Genuinely” ….

Natarajan3 Comments
A group of students were asked to list what they thought were the present “Seven Wonders of the World.”
Though there were some disagreements, the following received the most votes:
1. Egypt’s Great Pyramids
2. Taj Mahal
3. Grand Canyon
4. Panama Canal
5. Empire State Building
6. St. Peter’s Basilica
7. China’s Great Wall
While gathering the votes, the teacher noted that one student had not finished her paper yet. So she asked the girl if she was having trouble with her list. The girl replied, “Yes, a little. I couldn’t quite make up my mind because there were so many.”
The teacher said, “Well, tell us what you have, and maybe we can help.” The girl hesitated, then read, “I think the ‘Seven Wonders of the World’ are:
1. to see
2. to hear
3. to touch
4. to taste
5. to feel
6. to laugh
7. and to love.”
The room was so quiet you could have heard a pin drop. The things we overlook as simple and ordinary and that we take for granted are truly wondrous!!
If wealth is the secret to happiness, then the Rich should be dancing on the streets.
But only Poor Kids do that.
If power ensures security,then top Officials should walk unguarded.But people who live on roadside feel more secure.
If beauty brings ideal relationships, then celebrities should have the best marriages.
But they have one of the worst relationships.
That’s why… Live simply…Walk humbly and Love genuinely!!!  
May Sai bless us all with the wonderful qualities of a child once again. May we learn to trust our loved ones once again. May we all learn to love unconditionally once again .May we all learn to respect our elders once again. May we all have that sweet smile and the warmth of innocence around us once again. May we always be in a cheerful mood once again. May  the ego , jealousy and greed in our hearts be replaced by compassion, faith and  devotion .May we all be Sai’s good children once again and above all May we all be blessed with Sai’s grace and love in all our lives to come..

Message For The Day…If God is Invisible to You, Fault lies within You …

NatarajanLeave a comment

Nothing is ever born without the will of God, nothing ever happens without His will. This is the message of the Vedas. Understand the scriptures well and this lesson will be instilled in you. Fleas suck and taste only the blood of the cow, but we draw from her, sweet nourishing milk. So too, you must draw and learn from the scriptures, the potency of the will of the Lord. If fixed in that faith, you will be able to brave all dangers. In Ramayana, not all the stones that Lord Rama stepped on, turned into a human being. Only one stone changed into the form of Ahalya, for repentance and penance had elevated that stone to win the Grace of the Lord. If God is invisible to you, the fault lies within you. You are unable to recognize His various manifestations. You yourself are His very own manifestation. Fix your vision!

“Which is The Best Day to Pray ” ? ….” It is Today ” !!!

NatarajanLeave a comment
One day, A young boy asked an old man,”Sir, which is the best day to pray?”
The wise old man replied, “My son, the best day to PRAY is the day before you DIE.”
The boy was astonished and replied,”Sir, how can I know the day of my death?”
And the old man answered,”No one knows the day of our death,
THAT’S WHY WE NEED TO PRAY EVERY DAY!”

It is always believed that in order to take the name of the Lord , in order to have a peaceful conversation with God which basically means to pray to God , in order to feel His bliss– we definitely need His grace.. So today , Let us all join our hands and pray together with all our love and devotion to Thank Sai for all the blessings that He has showered upon us and at the same time let us also ask Him to forgive our sins and give us the strength and courage not to repeat our mistakes and sinful actions ever again. May we all accept the bitter truth that the tomorrow may never come in our lives and so every single day let us try our best to move one step closer in the path of His kind grace and His wonderful blessings ..
Sai Bhakt,

Message For The Day…Without Purity of Heart, No Purity of Mind and Intellect…

NatarajanLeave a comment

Spiritual knowledge cleanses the mind and helps us undertake good actions. But that is not enough. The heart also should be pure. In the absence of purity of heart, there can never be purity of the mind and intellect. We should not give scope to the creepers of bad qualities to entangle the heart. A creeper that goes around covering the tree ultimately smothers the tree itself. One should ensure that the creepers of lust, anger, greed, and infatuation do not get entangled to one’s own Self. The society will ultimately value purity of heart more than all other achievements. One can escape from the house on fire, but not from the senses which are ignited by the fire of evil qualities. It is the foremost duty of every individual to keep their senses under control.

Message For the Day…Do not Underestimate Yourself…

NatarajanLeave a comment

Do not demean your talents; when you dive deep into yourself, you can discover the source of all strength. Small ants in millions creeping over a rock, can carve a deep groove along their path. Even the minute feet of the ants have that power. You might have seen on the walls around village wells, how hollow pits are produced on granite slabs by placing on them mud water pots continuously. Even though the pots are made of mud, over the years they erase even the hardest granite and make them hollow. The Atma Swarupam (Embodiment of Divine Self) is not Alpa Swarupam(insignificant). It is a powerful dynamo, capable of generating enormous power. The Spiritual teacher (Guru) shows you the goal(Guri), but you must generate the power yourself, by your own spiritual effort (Sadhana).

Message For The Day…Honour Your Parents and Obey Them …

NatarajanLeave a comment

Have the progress of your country, your duty (Dharma) and your innate Divinity (Atma) before your mind’s eye at all times. Let your hunger for serving these three, grow more and more. Then your education will serve its purpose and give you a sense of mission and fulfillment. You will naturally acquire respect for elders, faith in your own Self, fear of sin, and fear of going against the voice of God present within you. Never cross this line – Do not do anything which brings tears in the eyes of your parents. Honour them and obey them. Do not condemn them as old-fashioned. Remember the adage, “Old is Gold”. Your parents can guide you; they can share with you their experience of the world and its tricks, and you will benefit from them.

“When HE Stands Up For You…No one Can Stand against You ” !!!

Heaven and Hell
One day A violent samurai warrior with a reputation for provoking fights for no reason arrived at the gates of a Zen monastery and asked to speak to the master.
Without hesitating, the Master went to meet him.
‘They say that intelligence is more powerful than brute force,’ said the samurai. ‘Can you explain to me what heaven and hell are?’
Master said nothing.
‘You see?’ bellowed the samurai. ‘I could explain quite easily: to show someone what hell is, you just have to punch them. To show them what heaven is, you just have threaten them with terrible violence and then let them go.’
‘I don’t talk to stupid people like you,’ said the Zen master.
The blood rushed to the samurai’s head. His brain became thick with hatred.
‘That is hell,’ said the Master, smiling. ‘Allowing yourself to be upset by silly remarks.’
Taken aback by the monk’s courage, the samurai warrior softened.
‘And that is heaven,’ said the Master, inviting him in. ‘Not reacting to foolish
provocations.’
When you Kneel down in front of  Sai, He stands up for you and
when He stands up for you, No one can stand against you…     
May Sai bless us all with Patience so that we can feel the bliss of Heaven ,right here on this earth.

Message For the Day…Make ” Namasmarana ” a Daily Habit….

NatarajanLeave a comment

Singing the glory of the Lord is highly sacred. When you sing the Names of the Lord (Namasmarana), the snakes of bad qualities will come out. Namasmarana is like the piped musical instrument (Nadhaswaram), that attracts the snakes of evil qualities and draws them out and away from you. You must repeat the Lord’s Name in order to get rid of your negativities. Sing unto Him from the depth of your hearts, without any inhibition, with total dedication. Only then you can experience divine bliss. Today the Universe is facing a lot of problems due to lack of this habit. Young or old, rich or poor, educated or otherwise, everyone must do Namasmarana. Make this habit the very breath of your life. Let each and every cell of your body be filled with the Divine Name. Nothing else can give you the bliss, courage and strength you derive from singing the Lord’s Glory.
