Guest guest Posted May 30, 2004 Report Share Posted May 30, 2004 108 Quotations on Faith in GodFrom Sri Sathya Sai Baba's Divine Discourses – 24 – As I was coming here, some people greeted Me with the words: "Happy birthday! Happy birthday!" I am always happy. I need no "Happy" greetings. Convey your greetings of "Happy birthday" to those who are not happy. I am filled with infinite joy. I have never had any worry at any time or place. What is the reason? All things are transient like passing clouds. Why worry about them? We should not be elated or depressed by births or deaths. We came naked into the world. When we leave, we cannot leave our address with "our" kith and kin. How can they be "our kinsfolk?" All these are worldly phenomena. As long as we live, we should spend our lives in harmony and fellow-feeling. All our difficulties can be overcome by contemplation on God. Forgetting God and immersing yourself in worldly concerns, what do you achieve? Have firm faith in God. Don' t give room for differences of caste, creed and nationality. All names and forms belong to the Divine. All that you see is a manifestation of the Cosmic Form of the Lord. With firm faith in the Divine, chanting the Lord's name, redeem you lives. – Sri Sathya Sai Baba Sri Sathya Sai Baba's Divine Discourse on 23.11.1990Sathya Sai Speaks, Volume XXIII, Chapter 34: Restore the glory of Bharat,Section: "I am always filled with infinite joy"Online: http://sathyasai.org/search/volume23/sss23-34.pdf Friends.
