Guest guest Posted September 1, 2004 Report Share Posted September 1, 2004 108 Quotations on Faith in God >From Sri Sathya Sai Baba's Divine Discourses - 104 - Want of steady faith is what drives people to drugs and books. There is a story about Raadha and her faith in Krishna. The elders in Brindaavan who revelled in scandalising Krishna--successors have been born for them even now--set an ordeal for Raadha to test her virtue. She was given a mud pot with a hundred holes and asked to bring water in that pot, from the Yamuna to her house! She was so full of the Krishna-consciousness that she never knew the condition of the pot. She immersed it in the river, repeating the name of Krishna as usual with every intake of the breath and every exhalation. Every time the name Krishna was uttered, a hole was covered, so that by the time the pot was full, it was whole! That was the measure of her faith. Faith can affect even inanimate objects. – Sri Sathya Sai Baba Sri Sathya Sai Baba's Divine Discourse on 16.4.1964:Sathya Sai Speaks, Volume IV, Chapter 17: His Residential Address,Section: Royal road to achieve the Truth.Online: http://sathyasai.org/search/volume04/sss04-17.pdf Win 1 of 4,000 free domain names from Enter now.
