Valedictory Discourse on 28th July

[Guest guest]

From Bhagawan's valedictory divine Discourse on the occasion of World Youth Conference 2007, Prasanthi Nilayam, on 28 July 2007. Why was this body named Sathya Sai? Truth alone manifests from this Sai. Sathyam is present in the heart of whoever contemplates on Truth. Hence, one should never forget Truth. All people in this world love someone or the other. However, there are differences in such love. Students love their fellow students. Ladies love other ladies. God is present in this lady as well as the other lady. Both are embodiments of Divinity. The one God is present in all bodies. We must love every human being. Love all serve all, since God is present in all human beings. There is no place in this universe where God is not present. God is present in the sky, in the water, in the sound, and in the light. Thus, everything in this universe is the embodiment of

Divinity. I don't say it is wrong to worship idols. But you yourself are God. Consider yourself as God first, and then begin to see the same God in every living being. Your body is a temple. There is divine energy in that temple. However, a little discrimination is to be exercised in this context. You have to enquire whether this energy is God. In fact, the body is also God. God is immanent in every atom and every cell of the human body. There is no place in this universe where God is not present. Hence, do not entertain any doubt about the existence of God. Do not forget God. In fact, if you forget yourself, it amounts to forgetting God. Hence, do not forget yourself. It is for this reason that one is advised, "Always be careful." You must constantly enquire into yourself, "Am I forgetting God?" You must always be aware of your true nature and remind yourself, "I am I." If you are

firmly established in that truth, there will be no scope at all to entertain any evil thoughts about others. Always think, "Swami is in me.I am in Swami." However, it will be no use if you simply repeat, "I am Swami, I am Swami," with a fickle mind. Develop firm faith, "I am Swami; I am God; I am God." Only when you develop that firm conviction will you attain Divinity, which is nirgunam, niranjanam, sanathana niketanam, nitya, shuddha, buddha, muktha, nirmala swarupinam (God is attributeless, unsullied, final abode, eternal, pure, enlightened, free, and the embodiment of sacredness). Observe Me. I am always cheerful and smiling. I have no pain or suffering. I am revealing the truth. Some time ago, I sustained an injury to My leg due to a mistake committed by the students. My hip bone suffered four cracks. The doctors examined Me and

decided to put My leg in bandage. I refused. I came to the balcony by walk and gave darshan, to the devotees. Even now, one of My legs is shorter by two inches. Several doctors, including Dr. Pillay and his son from Singapore, came and wanted to examine Me. They are specialists in the branch of orthopaedics. Also several experts from America and other places came. They prayed, "Swami! Please spare just five minutes to us to examine Your leg." I told them, "I will give you five hours for a spiritual purpose, if you wish. But I don't give this body even for five minutes for a clinical examination." Even now, the students hold My body as I walk. I shout at them saying, "I will not go if you follow Me." Thus, I give strict instructions to the students accompanying Me. I am able to manage Myself. I have no pain or suffering in the least. I can walk

in the normal way. I do not fumble while walking and can keep My normal pace. I maintain the same body weight for many years. My body weight then was 110 pounds. There was neither an increase nor a decrease in the body weight even to the extent of half pound. I am always hale and healthy. No one need worry about My health. I will always be happy. When you look at Swami from an external angle, you will think that Swami is perhaps suffering from severe pain. Not at all! I have no pain whatsoever. Even if there is some pain, your love for Swami will remove that pain. It is enough if I look at you; all My pain is gone! I will be happy and cheerful. My pain, if at all there is some, has to be removed by your love for Swami and not by the doctors. What could be the reason for people in such large numbers gathering here today? What does it connote? I

am extremely happy that I am able to win the love of so many people. You also be happy, wherever you are. I am always happy. I am extremely happy to see you all here. This is your good fortune. This time, the people have all come here with intense love and devotion. That makes Me very happy and cheerful. I am very eager to come to the Sai Kulwant Hall by walk from tomorrow to give you darshan. There is no medicine more efficacious than love. Your love is My medicine. That is the most powerful medicine. Equally, My love is a powerful medicine to all of you. Always be happy and peaceful. Live like members of the same family with love and affection. Do not be weighed down by petty difficulties and suffering. Do not give scope to any worry. Even if your wife or children suffer from a

disease, do not get perturbed. Go back to your places with firm faith that everything will turn out to be good. Lead a happy and peaceful life. (Swami, at this point of time showed to the audience the linga He had created earlier to and enquired), Did you see this linga? It is heavy. A much bigger linga will emerge from Swami's mouth. The Sivarathri festival is approaching. Om Sai Ram
