Sai message for the day

[Guest guest]

Swami! We are always in a hurry. We have to rush to so many places to

catch up and to keep pace with time and work. In this type of fast

life, is it possible to be spiritual? Can we hurry here in the

spiritual field too?

 

Sai Baba: Today, many of the diseases are due to the three factors

very common among you: hurry, worry, and curry. Haste makes waste,

waste makes worry. So, don't be in a hurry. Patience is very

important and essential. In my previous form at Shirdi, I laid

emphasis on sraddha and saburi, sincerity and patience.

 

It is very common to find people running to catch a train or a bus to

go to office, and so on. You wait for any length of time standing in

long queues in front of cinema theatres. But here, you begin to look

at your wrist watches wondering why Swami has not yet come out for

dars'an ! So, you must be patient enough to enjoy real bliss. For

anything to happen, there is a proper time, pre-ordained, pre-

determined, and designed by God. You know Arjuna had to wait till his

74th year in order to listen to the Bhagavadgita, the Song

Celestial, from Krishna although both of them were moving together

for years very intimately. Similarly, you too should wait. You should

not feel, " What is this! Why is Swami not talking to me? " At the

right time, I will do the appropriate thing for you. See, how a fruit

falls down on the ground soon after it is ripe detaching itself from

the tree! You will have to wait till the time is ripe for you. You

can't and shouldn't be in a hurry in the spiritual field.
