Guest guest Posted December 22, 2004 Report Share Posted December 22, 2004 Light and Love "He that believeth on me, the work that I do shall he do also ...and greater works than these shall he do." Jesus didn't say that He was the only one that could accomplish all these miracles, to teach and to liberate people. We all want to become so great, but we couldn't. Why? We are lacking of faith, courage, knowledge and wisdom... The Bible says that we has made in the image of God, that we are His children. It means that we are as if as God and concequently we also may possess parts of His powers. Jesus has said, "I am the Way, I am the Light of the world, as long as I am in the world." It may interpret that different reincarnation of avatars continued/continue and will continue His task. He is not the light of the world in a physical sense. He has left to humanity His teachings what include the silent teaching that can only to transmit through silence, through contemplation within. That brings the seeker nearer to God. The true Master within is God, the Holy Spirit, which dwells within your church, your temple. When God manifests, we can hear the teaching through the heavenly Music, we can see Him through bright visions. That is our true Nature when It is awakened. Reference: http://godsdirectcontact.com/teachings/AZJesus.html Writing this text my thoughts are with Swami. He writes: "One heart, one-thought, one God, one Goal.. Whether you utter the name ofAllah or Jesus, Buddha or Zoroaster, or Guruji (Naanak) - it is all the same." (Sathya Sai Speaks." Volume 26,Chapter 11). I add to this list our Swami - Sri Sathya Sai. As we live with Him with the same time, His Teaching and personality is the alive source of Divine energy and wisdom towards spiritual Truth. Today Swami's devotees are Swami's children. They may obtain His powers when there is a faith to follow Swami's advices through His Teaching, inspired by Darshans and His selfless actions. We all are as 'multiplied Swami's' in actions with different faces, ages, nations, etc., but with the one and the same illumination of Atman. Millions and millions of Swami's devotees and followers spread His Teaching. According to It the selfless actions more and more actively spread too over the world, in different countries, among different nations... Jatindar Shad in his post indicated to the important Swami's note. - Jatindar Shad SAIpapu ; saibabanews Friday, December 17, 2004 5:30 AM [saibabanews] Re: Full Week Swami Darshan "The onus of betterment is on US - Swami started by His example - MY LIFE IS MY MESSAGE and later when much had been written on His Life - He changed it to YOUR LIFE IS MY MESSAGE. In one statement He made us all the Role Models." "Your Life is my Message" - these words need in the deep look within and contemplation with personal conscience of Swami's devotee or follower. In these words our responsibility before Order and Harmony with the laws of Nature and Atmic Reality is hidden. When we can to realize this Swami's statement the Golden Age in humans' mind with evolution of humans' consciousness and their spiritual values will in progress. The unity (expressed through Love - the universal divine power ) of Swami's devotees with Swami and with each other is a great spiritual appearance of Order, Harmony and human values on the Earth for entire humanity. Swami's Teaching and His Divine energy is what flows over the World and merges His children 'to prepare' the seeds for spiritual growth for all humanity. Cosmic Awareness of Atman, faith and experience of Swami's Teaching is the promoter the universal power to become masters of ourselves. Thereafter is possible to lead others to become masters of their own destinies. Let's remember some Swami's quotations from His recent Discourses what complement the topic about unity between the God and a human being. "Worldly Gurus undergo change with the passage of time. God alone is changeless and He alone is your true Guru. Have total faith in God. Develop faith day by day. Only then can you be called a true Manava (human being). Daivam Manusha Rupena (God incarnates in the form of a human being). Hence, consider yourself as divine. Never be under the mistaken notion that God is elsewhere. He is always in you. Your reflection is God's reflection. Your reaction is His reaction. Everything is basically divine in nature. It is God who makes you play your role in this cosmic drama. He is the cosmic play director. You may call Him by any name. But He is only one." (Extracts from: Bhagawan Sathya Sai Baba. Dasara Divine Discourse, "Have Faith in God, the only True Friend" - 17th October 2004. Prasanthi Nilayam). "The divine power fully manifests itself in a human being. Human power cannot function without the help of Divine power. The divinity in humanity expresses itself as Sakthitattwa (energy). In fact, the real power is within you only. That is Atma Sakthi (atmic power). We have already known that Atma is consciousness. Therefore, Atma Sakthi is chaithanya sakthi (power of consciousness). The immense power in humanness is Divine in nature. You may think that Divine power is some special power. It is not true. Your own power of contemplation assumes the form of Divine power. You are worshipping several forms of divinity. However, you cannot afford to forget your own innate divinity. In fact, you yourself are ascribing umpteen number of names and forms to divinity. But, divinity is only one, which is changeless. That changeless eternal divinity is immanent in you. All external forms and names are like fleeting dreams. God is manifest in you." (Extracts from: Bhagawan Sathya Sai Baba. Divine Discourse, "Your Reality is in Your Own Self, not Elsewhere." 25th October 2004. Prasanthi Nilayam). Recently (18 and 19 December 2004) we had two seminars-study days in general with heading "Ecological consciousness through Swami's Teaching." One of the group consisted in younger specialists, teachers and the second - in elder active teachers. The group of elder teachers decorated the room with garlands around Swami’s pictures, Sailograms, flowers and fir branches with candles. It was so lovely decoration; even at summer seminar, we had not such abundant of flowers. They longed for these nice days in August where Swami's true devotees Jatindar and Pam Shad were with us. They said that they both Jatindar and Pam were shining. Pam, who spoke a little, but with any words she illuminated and all our company felt the strong, unseeing sweet vibrations around her. Tens of our teachers (not only gentlemen, but most of the ladies) merged that. It is not a fancy but reality, noticed by tens of teachers and specialists. I explained that unseen vibrations are Swami's Divine energy shining through our guests from India. True devotees are carriers of His energy within what overflow around them. I distributed to the 24 activists the gifts, sent by Pam and Jatindar. Many of our teachers shed tears: so thankful they were. I could not even to deliver the complete lecture, that they were busy with sharing the memories from previous seminar and discussion concern to Swami's miracles. Under the influence of our last seminars, I very briefly wrote about the divine spiritual unity between Swami and His devotees as an unseen power what can melt the hearts covered with ice.
