Past Sai Messages for the Day
Tuesday, February 22, 2022
There is no need to search for the omnipresent Divine in any specific place. When you are yourself divine, why search for the Divine elsewhere? It is a mark of ignorance.

The Divine Will is the determinant of the destiny of the individual or of society. Society itself is a reflection of the Divine Will. It is only when man conducts himself on this basis that he will be able to discharge his duties free from ego. Hence man's supreme duty is to act according to the Divine Will. Duty (Dharma) is the spiritual expression of the Divine Will in relation to society.

I wish to advise you that you should never give scope for ego to dominate your actions. Wherever there is ego, there lies danger. Therefore, shed your ego and cultivate pure and selfless love toward one and all.

There is nothing in this world that cannot be achieved with love. I conclude My discourse with the blessing that the divine vibrations of today's singing of the Divine name (namasankirtanam) spread to the whole world and grant good qualities, good practices, and good behaviour to all people.

We consider Love as relating to the world. We consider it to be physical. In fact, it does not at all relate to the physical realm. It is truth, verily. “You are not one person, but three. The one you think you are; the one others think you are and the one you really are. “What others think is all imagination. The Self within you is the only truth. Who is this Self? That is “I”. This “I” is the same in all.

Truth is one, regardless of the nation or religion. Truth or Divinity cannot change according to place or circumstance. That is why it is said: Truth is God. That Truth is within us. The transcendental knowledge has described it as Being-Awareness-Bliss (Sat-Chit-Ananda). The names and forms of human beings may vary, but the Supreme in them, the Being-Awareness-Bliss, does not vary. It is eternal and changeless.

Lord will be the Guide of whoever installs Him as his Charioteer (Sarathi). He will not consider that position inferior. He is the Eternal Charioteer (Sanathana Sarathi) come to be the Charioteer of all. He is the Lord, for all who seek a Master, a support. The soul is the Master in every one.

Pleasure is an interval between two pains. Reduce your worldly desires. Develop desire for God. Inculcate love for God and thereby increase your happiness. If desires increase, your suffering also increases, and happiness too decreases proportionately.

Consider yourselves as the children of one God. You may worship God in any form of your choice, but recognize the truth that God is only one. The observance of holy days like Christmas is an occasion for realizing the importance of love and harmony among human beings.

Strive, that is your duty. Yearn, that is your task. Struggle, that is your assignment. If only you do these, sincerely and steadily, God cannot keep back for long the reward of Realization.
Wednesday, February 9, 2022
Everyone should regard himself as a Messenger of God and try to lead an ideal life. This means that one has to give up selfishness and self-interest. This may not be easy. But with God's Grace, it should be possible to progress towards Self-realization gradually.

Always meditate on the divine name, don’t just contemplate, meditate. Meditation should be with love for God. Without love, your meditation will not achieve the desired result. Your love for God should be continuous through day and night.

The root cause of all difficulties experienced by man is forgetting his spiritual reality and identifying himself with his body. The body is only the vesture of the Indwelling Spirit. By immersing himself in body-consciousness, man develops egoism and possessiveness, which result in promoting many bad qualities.
Sunday, February 6, 2022
More than education, the spiritual life will protect a person in every way. Devoid of spiritual outlook, all your education and academic degrees are a mere waste. Their value is zero.
Saturday, February 5, 2022
Fill your lives with devotion to God and develop the outlook “I am not this body. This is a vesture taken upon by Me. There is God inside who is conducting my life.” God is “in you, with you, around you, above you, below you”. Develop full faith in Divinity. Then you can achieve anything in life.

You are like fully ripened fruits. But, the fruits must contain sweet juice. Without that sweet juice, it cannot be a fruit. You must all have the sweet juice of love. If there is no sweet juice, people will just bite the fruit and throw it away. Hence, fill your hearts with the sweet juice of love.
Thursday, February 3, 2022
Develop faith as your foremost quality, irrespective of whether it brings you the desired results. Add love to that faith. “I am you and you are Me, I and you are one”.
Wednesday, February 2, 2022
Whatever be the name and form, develop faith in God. God has many names, but God is only one. The ornaments may be many, but gold is one. Do not lose sight of the gold. Without gold, you can not make ornaments.
Tuesday, February 1, 2022
Some incidents happening in this world may shake your faith in God. But, if you hold on to your faith firmly, you can boldly face any situation.

Entrust to the Lord, before it is too late, your mind and let Him shape it as He likes. Assign to your mind the task of serving the Lord and it will grow tame. You do not hand over the goldsmith an ornament that is quite nice, you give him for repairs or reshaping, the ornaments you feel have been broken or dented or gone out of fashion. So too, give the Lord your mind that certainly needs repair, if not complete reconstruction.

Realize that the love that is present in everyone is common to all. It is love that has brought you all together. It is the cord of love that has bound all of you. It is the unifier, the motivator, and the bringer of joy to all. Therefore, develop love.
Saturday, January 29, 2022
Service should be the guiding principle. There should be no room for any kind of differences in rendering service. When you wish to serve society, you must be prepared to sacrifice your individual and communal interests. Such sacrifice alone will sublimate one's life.

Mutual regard, equal mindedness, and forbearance are basic qualities necessary for every human being. Only the person with these three qualities can be regarded as a true man. It is essential that everyone should cultivate these three sacred qualities.
Thursday, January 27, 2022
First of all, strengthen your faith. Without faith, all kinds of worship and all spiritual disciplines are of no use, they are a waste of time. To begin with, cultivate love. Everything grows out of love. That love will reveal to you your true self. That love will confer bliss on you.
Wednesday, January 26, 2022
The most important requisite for man in the world is truth based on thought. True thoughts constitute the proper wealth for man. But, alas, modern man makes no efforts to cultivate good thoughts. The absence of good thoughts weakens the will power. With a weak will man cannot accomplish even simple things. To achieve anything worthwhile in life, man has to strengthen his will power.

When you build a house, you install a door in front. What is the purpose of the door? To admit all whom you welcome and to keep out all whom you do not want. It has a double purpose, you do not keep the doors wide open, for all and sundry to come in as and when they like. So too, select the impulses, the motives, the incentives that enter your mind. Keep out the demeaning, the debasing, the deleterious. Admit the highest wisdom of the scriptures, the wisdom culled out of the crucible of experience.
Monday, January 24, 2022
Develop the love of God. All other forms of love are not love at all, but only fleeting and impermanent attachments. Man's biggest folly is forgetting his divinity. All should realize that they come "from God." All are children of God. Everyone should seek to get nearer and nearer to God.

We are forgetting the fundamentals or root cause for the entire Universe. If there is no foundation, there can be no walls. If there are no walls, there can be no roof. You cannot live in a house that has no roof. Hence, first and foremost the foundation is very important. Based on the foundation, the pillars are raised and finally the roof is laid. Based on this analogy, self-confidence is the foundation, self-satisfaction is the wall, self-sacrifice is the roof, and finally self-realization is life. Thus, there should be a foundation for everything. That is fundamental truth.
