SRI SAIPADANANDA 'VANI'

Spiritual life is the real life, spiritual knowledge is the real

knowledge; Spiritual wealth is the real inexhaustible

wealth.

Rely on daily prayer and meditation with your Guru's

teachings to acquire spiritual power.

In this 'Kaliyuga' the easiest and best means to attain 'moksha'

is through repetition of the Lord's Name.

Speak the truth at any cost. Speak little, speak sweetly.

A kind word, a kind look, a kind smile, may please more than

the richest gift.

If your real desire is to do good, do it at once, this very minute,

else that precious moment will be lost.

Priceless are the words of wisdom that arise from the tongues

of saints.

An important quality we have to cultivate is not to look at the

faults of others.

Development of absolute faith in the Supreme Lord is what is

wanted and no study is required to reach Him.

All are equal in the eye of God. There is no distinction between

the rich and the poor, the high and the low.

Never show disrespect to anyone, never hate anyone, never

wound the feelings of another.

Associate with those persons who have faith in God and love

him without any earthly gain.

Nama Japa and selfless service to humanity helps one towards

God-realization.

Devotion is the only means of crossing the ocean of 'Samsara'

A devotee loves all, serves all and helps all. He is ever engaged

in the good of all beings.

Virtue of all virtues lies in God-consiouness. Let the mind be

attracted to God.

Always live in love, purity, gentleness, meekness, patience,

compassion, generosity and self-renunciation for all

these are your wealth and power.

Nothing is equal to the Guru's grace. Let every one of us be

prepared to attain this grace at the earliest.

Instead of merely repeating maxims like 'Be Good' and 'Do

Good' one should practise them in his day-to-day life

for others to follow.

 

May Sainatha Sadguru Sri Saipadananda shower

His choicest blessings on us all.
