Guest guest Posted December 11, 2008 Report Share Posted December 11, 2008 Dear Sai Devotees, In this week's eChat, we will read about an incident that teaches us the importance of determination......... -------------------------- A frustrated disciple came to visit the Guru and said,"I can not continue with my studies of sacred texts; I live in a small house with my brothers and parents, and never have the ideal conditions for concentrating on that which is important."The Guru pointed to the sun and asked his disciple to place his hand over his face, in order to hide it. The disciple obeyed. "Your hand is small, yet it can completely cover the power, light and majesty of the great sun. In the same way, the small problems manage to give you the excuse you need in order to hinder your progress along your spiritual journey.The Guru continued..“Just as your hand has the power to hide the sun, lack of determination has the power to hide your inner light. Do not blame others for your own incompetence.” ----------- Determination or Sraddha is the ability to focus on what you want regardless of the distractions........ OM SAI RAM!
