Guest guest Posted May 29, 2006 Report Share Posted May 29, 2006 AUM SAI RAM Dear SAI Family, Bhagawan Baba says :" The past is a seed; the present is a tree." When we plant a good seed, we get a good tree; when we plant a bad seed, we get a bad tree. We can also elaborate further and say that when we plant a seed of cactus ,we get a tree full of thorns, we don't get roses. Hence, Mr. Rahm has not reap a bundle of roses for his past actions but his case was dismissed without cost before a Court of Justice. Outside Court, of course, things are different ; the costs he has to pay to soceity are the consequences of his past actions. We know that we are given to pay the cost of all our actions. The Most Compassionate Lord of Parthi also says: "Raso vai sah,only in raso,purity of feeling, that rasa, divine sweetness dwells. There are many ways to load your chariot with me, more than I could hope you to learn in one lifetime. Seeing purity in all actions of others is wonderful to experience. But even more is knowing that all actions, regardless of their kind contain elements of purity. Even actions that are foul, bitter and full of suffering." Let us take the example of a child; he is vexed because his mum is leaving him behind to go to work; he is so desperate, he lifts his mum's valuable crystal powder case, throws it on the floor,hence , breaks the case in to pieces. The mother knows that there is purity in the action of the child. The child wants attention; but, most of all, he wants LOVE. Are we able to forgive those who damage our property and those who harm our loved ones and those who harm us? Shall we remember the words of the Lord Jesus Christ on the cross:" Forgive them ,Father, for they don't know what they are doing!" We, Sai devotees, are the seeds of yesterday; we are today the trees in Our lord Sai's garden; we are strong (in our faith), beautiful (in our Love), confident (in our God). At the lotus feet of SAI Anita _________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 29, 2006 Report Share Posted May 29, 2006 Sai Ram Brothers and Sisters around the world, Lot of emotional feelings are expressed lately on many social issues. Emotions will not go with Devotion!!! If Swami is our example, he is and remains as an eternal witness. Core of Swami's teachings are that at the most you alone can not change the world, you change your attitude reflecting through the glass of SAI LENS of LOVE and Forgiveness. Swami did not complain or react for one moment. There were many in the past and there were many in the recent past that will do anyhting to taint Swami with immorality. That is also his will. In the test of these allegations, the purity shines forth. I am certain all the people who made allegations benefitted from Swami to cure their senseless desires, deviations of the mind, and may be that hurts the ego and that is directed against Swami himself. In our personal lives, in the materialistic world as well as in our spiritual organization, a reverential person always gets blamed for adhering to Dharma and Satya. People show ingratitude after taking advantage from an attributeless person and taint that person with their own weaknesses. Swami is showing the way by not reacting to anything, pain, suffering, injury and leading an example to all of us. Let the night mare die down. Karma shall be paid off, some you see repercussions right away and some later. It is not desirable on our part to even think of getting back at these people. It is not our place. When you see a crime, report it and let the authorities take care of it. If auhtorities failed, the Universal consciousness will witness the laws of karma, even god will not interfere with the laws of karma.

Guest guest Posted May 29, 2006 Report Share Posted May 29, 2006 Dear Aunty Anita You are wise like my Dadu; when my sister in law who is english first came home with my brother Berty, she has never seen a cockroach in her life. Then she saw the animal crawling on all four from under her bed; it was ugly, disgusting and horrible; she took her shoe and she slapped hard on the animal; she hit again and again; my dadu heard the noise; he ran into the room and said: Bahu,why you hit and hit; the animal was dead at the first hit, he was gone-gaaya! sala! namaste prema Hema _________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 30, 2006 Report Share Posted May 30, 2006 Dear Aunty Meena, You and Aunty Anita and all the other women on this forum are examples of compassion and of love; your heart is the abode of Swamiji; Swamiji lives in your heart; i read some where what Swamiji says about woman; 'The woman is the foundation on which a PEACEFUL and HAPPY world is to be raised. When women are true, brave,kind and compassionate,the world can have an era of PEACE and JOY namaste prema hema saibabanews, Meenakshi Chintapalli <mkchintapalli> wrote: > > Sai Ram Brothers and Sisters around the world, > Lot of emotional feelings are expressed lately on many social issues.

Guest guest Posted May 31, 2006 Report Share Posted May 31, 2006 Sairam and thanks a lot Sister Meenakshi for postibg your views. When all these messages on Vegetarian / Non Vegetarian, unfavourable views on Swami in media etc were coming in, I was tempted many a time to put in my comments ( ego has taken over now), but held back remembering that "Do not find fault / talk ill of others" from the 9 point Code of Conduct. There must be some lesson in all this for us, to continue our sadhana to become better individuals. I must be concerned about myself, I will consider myself progressing on spiritual path the day when I stop reacting to whatever is said by my wife / relatives and getting upset. The problem is I claim to know the theory but tbere is no use of knowing unless I am able to put that theory into practice in day to day situations - specially with family and close friends. Thanks again for supporting all of us on to right path. In Sai seva, Madhusudan Nori Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
