Will Logic Help?

 

"There are several ways to go up. One starts from here. The journey

is difficult, path full of tigers and wolves. If you have a Guide

with you, then your journey would be safe".

 

These words are not new to a Sai devotee. However, what may be

lacking is the inability to remember of Sadguru's assurances. This is

enough to make the difference between hope and despair, happiness and

gloom. To be cautious of tigers and wolves needs a very conscientious

effort, for most of those beasts are hidden within.

 

Karma, Bhakthi, Gnana and Yoga are said to be the different roads

leading to the same destination. Sai Baba has stressed once and

several times, the importance of Devotion and surrender of the Self.

For the material man, this may sound like a forfeiture of the self, a

passive giving in to some unknown entity. Does this surrender demean

the human spirit? Does this by any means make a man less divine? Not

at all! The ability to even raise this question is a function of

human enterprise, the ability to analyze, discriminate and identify

with a particular attribute. If we let the self, give itself away, we

are divine! Dispel the darkness and what we have is light!

 

Traits that have made the man an advanced species on the globe are

the same ones that seem to take him away from the self. The material

self of the day is the result of the sequential build up of our

intellectual function, the faculty immersed with the pursuit of

definitions, data, facts, figures, theses, and functions. Does this

approach help one in anyway to seek the perennial happiness? If so,

how far is the goal? From the days of Flat earth to the hurricanes on

the mars, centuries of time are just a few feet of the miles. Who

shall build the computer that takes us to God? Saadhana, and

surrender, faith and patience are not passive states of existence. On

the other hand, they are the active pursuits that are not easily

comprehensible and unquantifiable entities that take one to the

Sadguru in all his glory.

 

On this beautiful Thursday, let us remember His love towards us,

towards our perfections and imperfections. Let us reinforce our faith

in Sainath and the Goodwill of Sai brothers and sisters worldwide.
