Guest guest Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 OM SRI SATHYA SAI GANESHAAYA NAMAHA! Sairam to Sai Family ! (A) Message of the wrist watch Today, every one wears a wrist watch; the watches are of many varieties--of shape, size and cost; the straps too are of different materials and monetary value. They tell us the time; they also serve as a decoration and an ornament. When they first came into the village of Puttaparthi, they created commotion and wonder. I was then nine years old. I wrote a limerick on the wearers of the strange contraption and on the leather strip round the wrists. (B) Now, the watch has become a part of every wrist. Only, the wearer has not learnt the message of the watch, its potential to arouse the latent divinity in man. The name, WATCH, has five letters! The mantra that leads the sadhaka to God (Siva)---Na-mah-Si-vaa-ya has five syllables. WATCH is as much a panchaakshari (five-lettered) mantra as Namah Sivaaya, and, if meditated upon, is as meaningful and momentous.
