The Abduction Of Sita: Divine Discourse Delivered by Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba -------------------------------------------------- What we think to be non-existent actually exists;What we think to be existent does not really exist.It is only Divinity that exists forever.It is the world that does not exist. Students, the Embodiments of Love: Human life is most sublime and sacred. Of all the species that exist on the earth, man is the highest, not only by virtue of his intellectual eminence but also by dint of the sanctity he possesses. He is endowed with many talents and abilities. Unfor-tunately, man wastes his life by misusing his capabilities. There are two avenues open to man: the Sreyo Marga (the path of Welfare) and the Preyo Marga (the path of Enjoyment). The path of Welfare is nothing but the path of inward life, whereas the path of Enjoyment is the path of outward life. During the course of His stay on the Chitrakuta mountain, Rama had many deliberati...

Bhagawan sings a Tamil poem in this discourse. Education Should Foster Virtues In Students: Divine Discourse Delivered by Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba -------------------------------------------------- Editor’s note: This discourse does not appear in the Sathya Sai Speaks series. It appeared in Sanathana Sarathi, September 2012. When iron keeps lying in dust, it gets rusted.But when the same iron is put in fire, it gets rid of its rust.Similar is the effect of company in this world.(Telugu Poem)Rain water gets absorbed in sand. But it becomes sweet when it falls on clay.Similarly, devotion shines in a person depending on his deservedness.(Telugu Poem) Embodiments of Love! Man is very sacred by nature, but due to the effect of good or bad company, he becomes good or bad. When a piece of iron is buried in dust, it gathers rust. But the same iron, when it is put in fire, gets rid of its rust and becomes bright and soft. Similarly, dust rises up in the sky with wind, but...

People have been celebrating Ugadi (dawn of the New Year) for the past many ages and generations. The Bharatiyas (Indians) have been conferring peace and security on all the nations with their strength of spirituality. Since time immemorial to this day, the motto of Bharatiyas has been Loka samastha sukhino bhavantu (May all the people of the world be happy)! But the present day condition is just the opposite. Man has progressed in the worldly sense, but morally he has regressed. He is not able to giv...

But to those who know that the body is but a vehicle, these cannot cause anxiety. I must emphasise this now, when I am inaugurating this Primary Health Centre. Bodily health is important, for ill-health affects mental poise and concentration. When the body is fit, mental functions too run smooth; when the body suffers, the mind too gets unsettled. So, this raft called body which is the only means of g...

God Incarnates To Serve Mankind: Divine Discourse Delivered by Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba -------------------------------------------------- Embodiments of Love! Just as the birds have two wings which help them to fly,Love and service are the two wings which enable man to reach his goal of life quickly.(Telugu Poem) MAN is born to render selfless service and not to indulge in selfishness. Selfless service alone can achieve unity of mankind. Only through unity can humanity attain divinity. Hence service is very essential to understand this unity in humanity. People are under the impression that service means merely to help the poor, the weak and the forlorn. It is a big mistake to think that you are rendering service to others. In fact, you are serving yourself because the same principle of the atma, the same principle of love is present in all. All men are essentially one. The differences lie only in their feelings. So, man should change his feelings and try to recognis...

maya  makes man dance to its tune.  Maya can be compared to a  nartaki (dancer). When you gain full control over this na-rta-ki, your life becomes a ki-rta-na (the reverse of the word nartaki). Chanting of the Divine Name is the best means of man's liberation in Kali Yuga. ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Sri Sathya Sai Media Centre < noreply@sssmediacentre.org > Date: Thu, Oct 30, 2025 at 05:30 Subject: Sai Inspires from Prasanthi Nilayam - October 30, 2025 To: < sai-inspires@googlegroups.com >   Loving Sairam from Prasanthi Nilayam!

> The footprints of God: Divine Discourse Delivered by Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba > -------------------------------------------------- > > This is the Day when the world celebrates the advent of Lord Krishna, who came down to earth in order to transmute it into heaven and make Gods of men. Hundreds and thousands of times has this Day been celebrated, but, does man shine today with the jewels Krishna poured into his lap? Has His Message been implanted in the heart and blossomed into higher life and aspiration? No. The reason lies in hypocrisy that parades as devotion! Words emanating from the tongue, belying the activities of the mind and senses. Man forgets that with each sunrise and sunset, a day is clipped off the allotted span of years; he leads life in a wobbling line from the cradle to the grave. He denies himself the Light of the Spirit when struggling through the trackless jungle of matter. That light will reveal the Spirit that resides in every thing and bein...

Teachings to treasure, teachings that transform. It was a great pleasure to listen to the highly accomplished couple who retired recently after serving in the senior most positions at the Karnataka government in India. Shri ISN Prasad and Madam Vandita Sharma shared their life journeys, when they also recalled their brief stay as students at the Asian Institute of Management, Manila, in 2000s. The eminent couple had kindly supported as scribes at the first INTERNATIONAL CONVENTION “Sathya Sai Educare – Integrating Values in Society” on 25-27 January 2002 held at Casa del Nino Montessori and Science High School Phase 6, A5, Pacita Complex I, San Pedro, Laguna, 4023 Philippines. The two-day International Convention was held in commemoration of the first anniversary of the ISSE San Pedro inaugurated on 14 December 2000. The Convention deliberated on the approaches for effectively integrating Human Values in Society. These Values are universal and they comprise, Truth, Right Conduct, Peace...
