eChat Of The Week: Power of Intention

[Guest guest]

Dear Sai Devotees, In this week's eChat, we will read a story about the power of intention.... ---------------------------- A yogi and his dsiciple are new in the city, with no money in hand and no place to stay. They both sat down on the ground and the yogi said:"When you focus your mind intently on any subject, it comes to pass." The yogi closed his eyes and started to meditate with full concentration. After about ten minutes he got up and started to walk, with his disciple following him. They walked through several streets and alleys, until they arrived at a hotel. "Come, let's enter inside", the yogi said to his disciple. They just set foot in the entrance, when a well-dressed man approached them: "I am the manager of this hotel. You look like traveling swamis and I believe you have no money. Would you like to work in the kitchen, and in return I'll give you food and a place to stay?" "Fine", responded the yogi. The disciple was perplexed and asked the yogi: "Did you use any magic? How did you do that?" The yogi smiled and said, "I wanted to show you how the power of thoughts works. When you think with full concentration about something that you want to happen, and your mind does not resist the subject of your thought, your thought materializes." ---- Let us train our mind to not resist the thoughts...and we shall receive the intensity as well. OM SAI RAM!
