Sai Inspires - 2nd May 2008

Speech is

produced cheap, but it has high value. It can elevate as well as demean

man. Listening to a speech, a zero can rise into a hero or a hero can

collapse into a zero. It can inspire or plant despair. It must be true and

sweet, not false and pleasant. Man must endeavour to acquire speech

untouched by subterfuge, limbs untouched by cruelty, hands free from

violence and thoughts free from vengefulness. Frenzy, fanaticism and gusts

of anger have to be controlled, for they lead to disasters whose range is

beyond calculation...Be conscious that every word we utter or hear will

leave an impression on our consciousness, and provoke reactions which may

or may not be beneficial. This is the reason why the company of God and

godly people is to be sought.

Discourse, May 20, 1982.

Tell me your company and I shall tell you what you are.

With Love and Regards,
