Guest guest Posted September 6, 2007 Report Share Posted September 6, 2007 " Never mind other's mind " – Part 03 MIND IS THE CAUSE FOR BONDAGE OR LIBERATION So my dear friends, what does Baba say about the mind? " The mind is an iron curtain. It is the mind that makes you liberated. It is the mind that binds you. Either for bondage or liberation, it's the mind that is responsible " Manam eva Manushyanam Karanam Bandha Mokshayo " If the mind is responsible for bondage and liberation, then I must try to understand my mind. We try to understand others' minds. What is the fun of understanding the minds of others when I do not understand my own mind? Never mind others'minds. Mind yourself. Mind your own self. Let me know my own mind. Let me understand my own mind. All scriptures say this. All gurus say this! The only thing between you and God is your mind. The only curtain between you and God is your mind. Once the curtain drops, you are God. When the curtain of the mind drops, you are God. It is the mind that makes you feel that you are suffering at the hands of God, that you are apart from God, that God is somewhere else, in the Vatican or in Shirdi or in Tirupati or in Puttaparthi or in Benares or in Macca, Madina. To feel that God is somewhere else is only a game of the mind. To feel that I am different from God is only due to the magic and mischief of my mind. Developing complexes of superiority or inferiority, whatever they may be, is only due to the weakness of the mind, so here better I can say depression. This also very easily we can solve thro our daily spiritual practices. Nothing is impossible, everything is possible by Sai's grace if you are having your own self confidence & courage, otherways its a gone case for ever and ever......... " God had created this beautiful world, and it is our duty to appreciate its beauty. The mind will get steady and calm slowly and gradually..If the mind is be allowed to run after objectives and be attached to them, our cycle of births and deaths will not come to an end. Objects of sense are thing harmful. With Viveka (discrimination) as our charioteer, we will control our mind, and shall not allow the senses to go astray. with such a charioteer, we reach the Sai Pada the final abode, our real home from which there is no return " " Oh Saima, we do not know how to redeem your obligations, therefore, we prostrate ourselves before you. Bless us poor helpless fellows, henceforth, let your holy lotus feet be our sole refuge. Many thoughts & ideas troubles us in waking & dream states,so turn away our minds from them to your bhajan and services and bless us " Baba is every where just feel him and keep on saying `Om Sai Ram' to whom so ever you meet. OM SAI SRI SAI JAI JAI SAI!!! Let us pray at the lotus feet of Bhagwan Baba who is the incarnation of all gods and protector of all, to show mercy on us, and increase our devotion towards him Let us pray Shri Sai to give us the intellect and wisdom to make tomorrow's world a happier place to stay with unity by following his principle of " Shraddha " and " Saburi " Jai Sai Ram Swamy Mahadevan Bow to Shri Sai-Peace be to all Baba Bless you ever!!!
