MESSAGES FROM BHAGAWAN - II If I wish you can be before Me instantly.If I wish your life can change dramatically.If I wish you can attain God in no time.But for Me to wish that,You first have to melt My heart.Melt it with your devotion,Melt it with your love.Melt it with your selflessness.Melt it with your

perseverance.Melt it with your unshakable faith.Once you pull the strings to My heart,I run and lodge Myself in yours.You conduct your life doing ungodly acts.You face one failure after another.Each failure takes youAway from Me even further,Due to your enormous egoWhich grows higher and higher.Do you think you can carry out unjust acts,And I will not intervene?Every time your ego rises, I stamp it even lower.Eventually,You tire with this war you wage with Me.You cry and wail and indulge in self pity.All those who accompanied you,In your unjust acts also take off,Leaving you all alone to face your karmas.I will not come and help you,Till I see true tears of repentance.With every tear of repentance that falls,I remove your miseries one by one.You now begin to realizeThat you are not alone after all!Always rememberGod is Omnipresent, God is the sole witness.God

descends to wipe out injustices.God forgives, God accepts.And God loves! God loves! God loves!When you are an infant,You depend on your parents.As a young child,You start to depend on friends and your teachers.As an adult,You depend upon the life partner you choose.And when you are old,You depend on your children.You depend on those all your life,Who are very muchDependent on something themselves.In the last moments of your life,You then turn to Me.Time is short, body is frail,You lose physical and spiritual strengths.You old habits become very hard to die.You are not able to find My strength.Even though I offer to you at all times.Do not waste

your divinity in every life.Start early in life.Depend on God !The nature of God isTo give strength and to give only !The strength to love.The strength of truth.The strength of Dharma.The strength of peace.Remember alwaysGod's companionship stays always.Develop your friendship with Him early in life,And hold His hand until you leave this body.He will then carry you the rest of the way.When you say, "I love God",To Me you say that you have burnt hatred.You have melted anger.You have risen above envy and jealousy.You have stamped your ego.You have accepted Him in every form.You have attained controlOver your senses, mind and intellect.You see no differenceBetween happiness and misery.You have no worry and only peace.You need none other than God.You are not attached, yet you are duty bound.Every cell of you experiences MeIn the form of love.You have become

Him.A heart that knows only love,A heart that knows no malice,A heart that cries for others' sufferings,A heart that welcomes all,Is a heart that says My name,Is a heart that sings My glory,Is a heart that serves all My forms,Is a heart that is My sweetheart.Fancy words and phrases,Uttered by you to your children,Without showing true leadership of practice,Is hollow and empty, lacking meaning.It only teaches your childTo be deceitful and hypocritical.First be honest and sincereOf your abilities to them.Tell them of your expectations of them,And of your love and encouragement for them.And make it a joint mission,For both to complete.Learn from their innocence,And teach them the true experiences of your life,From which you have learned.Teach them to pray at all times,For My guidance.Dedicate the task of being a parent to Me.Allow Me to become your mother and father,And that of your children,And those of future generations to come.The more you dip your tea leavesIn hot boiling water,The more color it absorbs,The more strength the tea gains.Similarly, the more you dive into spirituality,The more of My form you begin to attain,The more of My strength you receive.Drink this cup of teaEveryday in the morning,And let it awaken youFrom the deep sleep,Energize you from your spiritual laziness,Start your day with Me,And I promise you that I will fill the restWith My sweetness.You cannot put a price on love.A love with a price on it is demonic love.Divine love only knows to give.Do not demean your true nature,With a price tag on yourself.True

love is strong and upright as a mountain.It faces the most terrifying storms.It does not choose good from bad.This is a love that uplifts all.It smiles at hatred.It humbly bows down before pride.True love gives more when it detects jealousyIt does not retaliate to hatred.It looks for no rewards or appreciation.True love seeks the God in all,And thrives on being devoted to Him always.I have come to drive away your fears.Your fear of adhering to truth.Your fear of being alone.Your fear of someone to harm you.Your fear of My presence.Your fear of slipping and falling.Your fear of your belief in a God.Your fear of becoming lost.Your fear of death.Your fear of life.Your fear of love.These fears have becomeA big part of your lunacy.Have only one fear,The fear of karma.Karma spares none.You cannot pay it in credits.The law of karma expects its payments on

time.Be God-fearing of your karmas,But do not fear God.A human without compassion,A human without a melting heart,A human without love,Is not a human, but a statue !Do not look upon God as a mere statue to worship.God shakes with compassion,God streams with love,God overflows with softness.You must rise from humanness to Godliness.You are all but pieces of clay,Waiting to be molded into My form.I appreciate punctuality,And all work of duty done at the given time.Postponing given projects only shows MeA lack of commitment.A lack of duty of love.Anything done hurriedly,Is done under the stress of completing it.And when your heart is not in your work,I am definitely not present in it.Consider all projects given to you,As work that is handed by Me to you.Accept them with eagerness.Carry them out promptlyWith a full sense of duty and love.Do I show any

tardiness when you call upon Me ?I answer instantaneously.I rescue you from the clutches of your own karma.Even though sometimes,You do not give Me credit for it.You want things changed immediately,As per your wish.Will a mother feed the child only chocolates,Just because he likes them ?I alone know what is good for you.I follow all rules that I have set for you.Do not waste any more time.You do not know the amount of time,I have allotted to each one of you.Use your time wisely in your current body.Complete all your work successfully.Offer it at My feet and gain My Grace.When I speak soft words of praise to you,These are the words,Of encouragement you want to hear from Me.When I say harsh words of criticism to you,Those are the words,Of improvement you want Me to point to you.I only utter, that what you expect Me to.I am your thoughts,The thoughts that always prompt you

to do good,The thoughts that scold you from doing evil.I am here to make your sweetness even sweeter.I am here to point out your faults,And take the poison away.Learn to work harder on your strengths.Overcome the temptations of your weaknesses.Learn from other's strengthsAnd ignore their weaknesses.I am here to love you only.I am here to show you the way.Do you know the power in reciting My name?It is the spiritual power to reach Me.A direct wireless message is sent to Me,When, with all your heart, you repeat My name.Think of Me and nothing more,And My eyes will be set on you,Loving you with My glance,Like a mother to her child,Blessing you with My divine love for always.Come to see Me,With an empty mind.With a heart full of loveWith a smile of faith.With no expectations.Accept My love and blessings in the way,I think is best for you.Come on aboard.And

let Me take you,On this journey of peace.Discipline your life with love.Life is the origin of love.Love is the basis of life.Love is birth.Life is the birthplace.Love is your sanity.Life is the media.Love is the current.Life is the light.Love Life,And only live to love.Choose and stay with those who love Me.Keep yourself always in good company.The kind of company you keepDetermines your future.Stay away from the wicked.Do not deal with them directly.Just pray that I intervene to keep you safe,And transform the wicked with My loveTowards Me.Say little,Do good alwaysSmile and think of Me when in pain.Forgive easily.And once you have cultivated faith in Me,Follow Me blindly,And love Me wholeheartedly.Light the flame in your heartOf love and truth forever.Close your eyesAnd then make a search deep within,Spreading the brightness of this flame.With this flame, which is lit eternally,Say My name repeatedly.When all of a suddenEmerged a light, bright and peaceful,Surrounding you all over.A light in which you see Me in all.The flame lit within your heartNow merges with this light.Your prayers are now answered,Your meditation complete.I have answered your question of"Who am I, Swami?"You may constantly repeat the name of the Lord,Constantly rotating your rosary beads.But you must use this strength of the Lord's name,And put it into

practice.Repetition of My name,With no change in the pattern of your behavior,Is of no use.My name depicts strength of goodness.My form depicts purity.My speech depicts truth.My smile depicts selfless love.These are the virtues you too must depict.You, My child, are My reflection.Then hoe can any of your strengthsDiffer from Mine?It is time to wipe off the mist on your mirrors.Look closely and recognize your own image.When I stand before you,I inspire you to emerge your talents,That are latent within you.To some, I make them a singerOf the names of the Lord.To others, I inspire to write a poetry,Describing the Lord Himself.To some, I inspireTo read the toughest spiritual textsAnd comprehend them.To others I inspire to serve others,Through Me that is awakening within them.Make a strenuous spiritual effortTo call Me and to make Me appear before you.To create

these talents and use your body,To spread My name from corner to corner.When you stare atThe ripples in a flowing river,It creates an illusion of movement.You feel yourself move,Along with the direction of the water.When you close your eyes and open them again,You find yourself standing in the same place.You had not moved at all !!It was only an illusion.In the same way,When you concentrate on this world,Your outer senses, inner senses, desires and ego,Move in the direction of this unreality or maya.But when you close your eyes and meditate,On the form of the Lord, you findThat your inner true self has not moved.It remains stationary and stays unchanged.Any illusion can become a reality,Any reality an illusion.So stay inward.Discover reality.And be untouched by this illusion.Every word uttered by Me,Has a very deep significance to it.For you to understand

it,One reading is not enough.Hear My words, with concentration,Submerge your heart in Me.With constant reading and My grace,I will bless you to understand Me, a little bit more,With every effort put by you.When I direct you, I do it directly.I do not instruct you,Depending on others actions to you.I judge you on your actions and words.I do not encourage retaliating or revenge on others.Whatever others may say or do,I expect tolerance from you andNo reactions towards them.Nothing wrong done is excusable.There are no circumstances in the world,That can make you free to behave badly.All done towards others must have only one reaction,To be loving, to be helpful and not to be hurtful.If you look upon Me as your ideal, as your Guru,You must be able to reflect Me only,At all times.Most of you confer upon yourselvesA title after getting to know

Me."A Devotee" is proudly how youIntroduce yourself to others.Once this word is known to you,You walk around with it,Flashing it and displaying it,As if it was a proof of your virtues of character.Merely a word attached to youDoes not touch Me,Does not call Me.All the visits to the temples does not impress Me,Unless you have realizedThat the temple lays within,Which is to be kept clean and pure.All your actions must scream the word "devotee",For when you are truly devoted to Me,All the paths become clear.There is no confusion.You serve Me in all others around,And I then become indebted to your love.Touch Me with your love.Call Me always with your eyes and lips.Impress Me with your

actions.I have come to describe the virtuesOf My true devotee.He/She has,Eyes that are radiant and peacefulEyes that constantly search for MeEyes that have compassion and loveEyes that show determination of truthEyes that focus continuously on the goalA smile that shows confidence in My decisionsA smile where no pain is painfulA smile that melts and wins allA smile that speaks all My teachingsA smile that is ever contentHands that serveHands that never tireHands that give and never takeHands that carry all burdens of othersHands that stroke and love othersA heart in which I shineA heart in which I speakA heart that knows no preferencesA heart with a steady heartbeatA heartbeat that calls My nameA heart that speaks My languageA heart where I reside.Now that I have given you signsOf a true devotee,Let Me further explain as toHow is it you become My

devotee.The first step for you is to get to know Me.Search all around you.Choose a form of Me that appeals to you most.After you have chosen a form,Next research as toWhy that particular form appealed to you.The next step isStudy the teachings of that form.Spend time with Me more and more.You will find it addictive.Slowly your mind will start to find a little peace,A small taste of this peace,Encourages you to look for more.You start confiding in Me.I listen, I comfort, and sometimes to instill faith,I answer your prayers,To show you my presence.Your faith strengthens,Your love for Me increases,And slowly you develop enduring patience.You start to spend more time with Me.Your search starts

to look for Me all around you.A time comes when,Your eyes only see Me,Your ears only want to hear of Me,Your lips repeat My name constantly,Your hands serve Me in all.You open the doors of your heart for Me,And long for Me and Me and no other.I now enlist you as a devotee.I then stand before you, toAccept your most precious gift to Me -Your Devotion! Rise My bhakta.I have come to answer your call !The behavioral pattern of a childIs a combination of it's surroundings.It is a combination of his parents,His relatives, his friends, his Guru.My advice to you is,That the parents themselves must be examples,Of what they teach and enforce.The children must be under the influenceOf the Guru, from a very young and tender age.The goodness instilled within them by the parents,Along with the path that is taught by the Guru,Influences the child to open his spiritual eyes,To see and

feel God and His Omnipresence.Once he realizes this he finds himselfAmidst a sea of God,A sea that is eternal and replenishedWith pure love of His.Be charitable towards God.By charity I do not meanGiving of "money" and worldly "things"No ! No ! God does not need that.Offer to Him all your anger,All your hatred and greed,All your jealousy and envy.Why are you holding on to things,That will only grow more and destroy you one day?Give them to Me. I am eagerly waiting to accept.Let the love within you stay,Grow and spread to all.Let the spark of sacrifice become a hungry fireAnd

consume your greed.Let the sweetness of purityFlow from your heart to all around.Let the whirlwind of falsehood drop,And a cool peaceful breeze of truth prevail.Come to Me and offer all that you have.All that you offer is a gift of love to Me.I do not discriminate and I do not choose.I am only here to take away your darkness,And lead you in the stream of your light.Connect a phone lineBetween you and Me,And call on Me, whenever you yearnTo hear My voice speak.If the phone rings and no one answers,Do not think I am not there.For one day when your yearningTo speak to Me is really true,I will pick up the phone,And you will hear Me say, "I love you too !"Do not take advantage of others' goodness to you.Do not expect something from othersThat you cannot give.Accept any kind of help given to you with a smile,With a sense of gratitude and reverence.Do not criticize others'

service given to you.I take different forms to help you in life.Devaluing others' helpIs demeaning My love given to you.You have no right to grade one's love to you.Everyone shows love in their own unique way.A father's love is different from husband's love.They stand firm in their own separate grounds.They are incomparable.Expectations from others will only hurt you.They will make you bitter and sour towards life.Time waits for none and life is short.So give up your differences and unite in your love.When I reveal My true form,Even animals and insects recognize Me.So do not think thatOnly recognition of My form is enough.Yes, God is walking among you !Knowing and believing that is only the first step.I expect much more from you.Recognize Me, understand Me, believe in Me,And most important of all, love Me.With your love, find Me in all that I have created.Loving one and hating

another,Is but your own folly.Do not delude yourself,For how long are you going to liveWith this limited knowledge?God and you are not separate entities.Loosen all your attachments,Give up all your hatred,And experience your oneness with Me.Come, sit at the feet of the Guru.All that you want, all that you need,Is all at His feet.These feet will give you,All that this world took away from you,Your peace, your bliss, and even your own identity.Come, sit at My feet,And let Me give you back,All that you have lost.With My love and My grace,You will be born again, in a new world,A world beautiful and blissful,A world where you will find yourself,To be Me, and Me - you !Believe in the God in yourselves,And then only will you believe in Me !Your virtues and good qualities will only emerge,When with all sincerity you acceptThe self within.Yes ! You are God

!Believe in that and live to His true ideals.When God is truth, you too are truth.When God is pureness and love,You too are pureness and love.Why separate Me from you,When I am the One that resides within?Be simple in your worldly life,Rich in your spiritual world.Being God isBeing filled with the riches of all worlds,Yet being a slaveTo rendering love and service to all.Being God is destroying the evil within,Yet spreading the light of goodness to all around.It takes only a split secondTo realize your inert divinity,Through several life terms and births.Live today, by just not making Me your ideal,But in fact, live the ideal with Me.Once a man stood in the middle of the road.His head looked up to the sky.His eyes were filled with tears,As he continuously stared at one spotAnd repeated "Oh God", from time to time.A man passed him by,Looked at the man who stared at

the sky,And curiously stood behind him.He looked up at the same spot in the sky,And wondered what vision of God the man saw.When another man passed the two menWho looked up in the sky,He too joined in the line,And stared and wondered,As to what is it these two men were able to see.To him the clouds above seemedTo be shaped like Lord Shiva Himself."Maybe this is a Darshan of the Lord", he thought.Soon there was a big line of menStaring up at the sky.Finally one man who passed looked at the queue,And asked the last man as to what he saw.He said he was not sure,So he asked the man in front.This went on until the first manWho was still staring up was asked,"What is it, Sir, that you are able to envision?"The man with tears in his eyes replied,"My neck is terribly strained,And I am unable to move."All of a sudden the queue dispersedAnd the men moved on disappointed.Do not try

to experience Me through another.You will always face disappointments.I come to each one of you directly.Do not believe or develop faithBy experiencing others' faith in God.Come and experience Me directly.Can a child from the third standardTeach a child in the second standard?No! He will be able to answerOnly some of his questions.He himself is in school waiting to get his degree.You must be taught directly by the teacher.The teacher himself is qualifiedAnd has gone throughAll these levels to be able to teach.So find and dig your own path to Me.If you depend upon others faith,And if that person loses faith in Me,It will automatically affect your faith in Me.So approach your Guru directly.Do not be influencedBy others' faiths and experiences.To Me, each and every one of you are special,And My relationship with each one of youIs a unique and endearing one.If your faith in

Me is strong,If your intent to seek Me is sincere,If your heart is soft and pure,Your communication with Me becomes direct.No books can give youThe message I can give directly.No organization can explain MeMore than I can directly.No films and music can invoke your devotionMore than I can directly.So do not select a media to reach Me.Persist in searching Me yourself.When all is within,Why are you compelling yourselvesFor a superficial outward search ?Plan each and every activity daily.Include Me in each of them.You ask Me for self-realization and liberation.How can you attain liberation?You dedicate a few minutes of the day for prayers.Will a few minutes in the morning,And a few minutes in the evening liberate you?Self-realization is attained only when,You make an effortTo see Me at all waking moments.Self-realization is the ability to see Me in all,Living or

nonliving,Pleasant or unpleasant,In the good and the bad.Give up your laziness and strive forward.You do not impress Me with fancy words.I look for sincerity, I look for effort.You are lostAnd the only way to find your way back,Is to trust and have faithIn the directions being given to you.I give it to you directly.They are inscribed on the pages of your heart.Open this book and read it with utmost care.Educate yourself,And break the bonds that imprison you.It is time, My child, to liberate yourself.Free yourself from this limited bondage of time.Become eternal !You seem to live a dual life today.One of which is a pretense to please Me,And the other is a life you live for yourselves.The soul within you has only one true nature,It recognizes God and no one else.I do not answer to your pretenses,And I do not interrupt your egotistical way of life.You seem to want to be

happy on one hand.On the other hand,You download yourselves with sufferings.You see your goals in one direction,But I see you walk in just the opposite.Stop this lunacy you have developed.Your soul and mind are both diseased,And you seem to think that you are the doctor !Do not be satisfiedWith the temporary relief you feel with medications,Work on completely removing the disease.You suffer from,The disease of dwelling on the "I".Cure yourself from this "I"And let there be only "Sai ! Sai !"The evil I despise most of all,Is to talk of one in the absence of his presence.Avoid the temptation of the demon within you,That decorates and offers youA platter of others faultsTo feast upon.You may become a hero in others' eyes,When you degrade others to upgrade yourself.But in My eyes you are a coward,Who covers his own faultsBy shining the light on others.You can blindfold

others,You can convince yourself,But always rememberYou can never deceive Me.I know the truth.I am "truth".Sathya is My name.Sathya is what I have come to foster.If you would like to unfoldYour true nature within you,Start with the study of you Guru.The more you try to know HimThe more your true nature within reveals.Because even though you thinkThat the Guru stands in front of you,To instruct you with His teachings,Know for sure that,When your mind is quiet,The Guru within speaks,Makes you stir and awakens you.I promise, you will feel this joy one day.But for now, make a sincere search for Me,In whatever mode you can find Me.The day your search will end,Your study of Me will be complete.For you to start your process of purification,You need an inspiration.Your perfect model of this inspirationIs God Himself.Make God your inspiration,God your

thoughts, words and actions,God your companion,God your mother and father,God your life partner,And God your goal.To find Me, you have to beAmongst those who know and believe,Of my presence at all times.I encourage youTo be in Sathsang always.Surround yourself with thoseWho have chosen to be truly Godward.Be amongst those whose eyes show contentment,Whose lips only utter sweet and comforting words,Whose acts show My indwelling with certainty.The mind has to be trained to be quiet,And devoid of thoughts at all times.Meditation has to be practiced daily,As a sadhana to quiet the mind.God speaks only when the mind is quiet,Only when you lose your own identity, your ego,And when you recognizeYour indwelling divinity within you.When in all your earnest sincerity,You think of Me and call on Me,By your constant spiritual Sadhanas,Of getting to know My previous

avatars,You compel Me to arrive,To come and listen,To encourage you further in your devotion,And to bless you with beautiful bhakti.Continue your research on Me,With a heart full of love, pure and innocent,A mind that only envisions Me,And attain your supreme goal.Be Godward and become God.When your mind is filledWith thoughts that are sad,The sadness follows in your words and actions,Leaving all those around youLimp with your sadness.The feeling of sadness, anger, frustrationOccurs due to lack of faith.It is more of a lack of faith in yourselves,Than in Me.Most of you do not even know Me.Those of you who think that you know Me,Develop bigger egos and fall into bigger traps.Some of you want to know MeIn a short span of time.And of course when this fails,They get even more desperateThan when they had started their quest for Me.Those who truly know

Me,Experience Me with total faith.They do not present MeTheir terms, conditions and challenges.With faith in one hand and patience in the other,They join their hands in front of Me,And allow Me to steer their boat,The boat which sails, in the direction of the winds,The winds of My divine love,Which can sail overThe stormiest oceans of illusions.Let me be the messenger,From God to you, His devotee.I have brought from Him a messageOf how you too can become God.These are the rules you follow:1) You hear of Him2) You talk of Him3) You go in search of Him4) You yearn for Him to end this search5) You find Him6) You then listen to Him7) You talk to Him8) You begin to imitate Him9) You meditate on Him10) You realize His omnipresence11) You recognize HimAs Universal Consciousness12) You attain Him and liberate yourself13) You are now merged with Him14) God is

you and you are God.The sun rises everyday.It never fails in its duty.It nourishes and sustains all living forms.We depend upon it's light and warmth.Without the sun, all life forms would fall and die.Let Me be the sun in your life.A sun that rises, but never sets.I will give you the warmth of My love.I will spread around you the light of My knowledge.In your life, there will be only day and no night.There will be only awakeningAnd no more ignorance of sleep.With this energyYou will grow more and more spiritually.I have come today to be by your side.To make you recognize God.To teach you God.And to realize God !Call My name over and overAnd I will appear before you.Come now, and sit by My feet.Smile, and let Baba take over.For when I take controlYour worries have ended.I have brought with Me a bag full of giftsTo lure you to Me.Colorful boxes filled with

love.Do not waste your time.Open them quick.Accept My love with your faith in Me,And let this relationship never end.In moments of sorrow I will uplift your spirits.You stand in daylight,But still live in the darkness of ignorance.I will walk into your lifeAnd will shed true light of love.In the periods of desperation,I will stand before you, I will be the answer !In your failings, I will take the blame,In your success,I will prompt words of encouragement.In times of loneliness, I will fill your heart with joy,In cases of uncertainty, I will lead.When virtues fall and morals blacken,I will unveil the impurity.It takes only a single thought,It takes only a single word,The name of the Lord !Call Me today,Call Me now !I will come,I will come to save you from yourselves.One moment of peace,Yet the next one of restlessness,One moment of love,Yet another of

spite and hatred,One moment of truth,Yet enveloped in the next with falsehood,One moment elation,Yet another of severe depression,One moment of surrender,Yet the next filled with worry and anxiety,One moment experiencing God,Yet the very next being hopelessly human.Is this your insanity, or,Is it your total lack of commitment to Me ?Momentary experienceDoes not give you liberation.They are only the windows to glance at Divinity.Each one of youMust be in constant spiritual practice.Moment after moment,You must taste the sweetness of God.Your experiences of Me must linger from the past,Continue to its present, and move to the future.Time itself must become Me.Age with God and not with time.Finally you must travel beyond time, beyond age,And beyond any limitations.All that limits you is your ignorance.All that become limitless is in My light
