Carrying unwanted Luggage Steals Our Peace Of Mind................

[Guest guest]

My Humble Pranams at The divine Lotus Feet Of Our Ever Present Beloved Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba!

How often Swami has quoted the samethings again and again.We may think why Swami repeats the same thing so many times.It may be at different occassions but if We inquire deep with in He is trying to tell us that all these things which we perceive through our sense organs are really not true and reminds us that We all are embodiments of the Divine Love.

We forget our true identity and act like mere human beings having dehabhimanam or body attachment.We tell ourselves yes we know that we are divine but are we making any efforts to be like one?unless we taste the True nectar of our own Divinity we are prone to all kinds of mental blockage and all kinds of misconceptions.

Lets see How our Mind is robbed off the peace that was with us at all times within us.

Many ofthe people think that they aren't happy.Its because they are dragging around all sorts of baggage from the past.Somebody offended them last week,so they have packed that pain in their bag.A month ago,they lost their temper,said somethings they shouldn't have,and that they have stuffed in their bag too.Ten years ago their loved one died and they just don't understand why.They have got that anger and doubt stashed in still another bag.They have got that suitcase full of junk too.They have been carrying these heavy bags for years;they are loaded down by their collection of burdens,and then they wonder why they can't live rich full of life.!

What is worse is that they carry their baggage with them everywhere they go.Not only they hold on to their baggage but they like to unpack it every now and then just to make sure its all still there.They take somethings out and look at them,and relive all that hurt and pain.Then they pack it up again and grag it someplace else!

Clinging on to the old memories that were painful will only ruin your peace of mind,keeping you bitter,discouraged,emotionally worn out,depleted of energy and enthusiasm and living in self pity.Sadly your situation will not change until you put your foot down and make a decision to do something about it.SAy "No,I am not going to be a prisoner of my past anymore,I had enough,I am going to get rid of all this baggage.I am going to stop focusin on my disappointments.I am moving on with my life,knowing that God has goodthings in store.

Friend,God is bigger than your past,He's bigger than your disappointments.He is bigger than your problems.You may have made a lot of mistakes,but God can turn those things all around.People may have hurt you and done your wrong,but if you'll leave it up to God,He will pay you back.

GET RID OF THE BAGGAGE AND START FOCUSING ON YOUR POSSIBILITIES GOD IS SAYING THAT THERE ARE GREAT DAYS AHEAD FOR YOU.

I would also like to quote the summary of the talks of a SAi Student Sri.Sanjay Mahalingam during his talks in Divine Presence of Bhagawan Once a Devotee asked Swami that he is being bothered by Maya too much and that he doesn't know how to overcome it.So Bhagawan immediately asks him too many questions one after the another like what's his name and where is he from and what's his wife's name and when the devotee answered Swami very mischiveously says "If you remember all these how can MAYA leave you?" We should forget our identity if we desire of the bliss which our beloved Bhagawantalks of.

AS Swami says "GOD IS IMPORTANT. If you have God with you, you will have the rest. Real wealth is God. Real health is God. We should make every effort to pray for God. Because we are from God, we should be back to God"
