AN
APPEAL
My
dear sisters, brothers, relatives, acquaintances and friends. If you have known
me personally and in whatever capacity you have judged me, and if you have even
a little confidence in me, please take my advice and go and have Darshan of
Bhagavan Sri Sathya Sai Baba at Prasanthi Nilayam, Puttaparthi. No matter what
it costs you. Even if you have to walk, all the way to Puttaparthi, the Darshan
would be worth the trouble.
You
never know, how and when, His single glimpse, a casual look, a word directly
spoken, a momentary touch or His granting you Pada Namaskar (touching His Lotus
Feet), can bring a drastic change in your life and can lift you up from humanity
to spirituality.
For
earning His grace, all that you have to do, is create your faith in Him and
develop the yearning to see Him and meet Him. This will enhance His speed and He
will receive you quickly because He has already declared, “If you move one
step towards Me, I will move ten steps towards you”.
I
wish that I was in such a position of authority, where I would have been able to
give all of you my visiting card, to enable you to meet Baba personally, to
experience Him and know Him. But this can never
be done. He is Paramatma and we all are individual Atmas, and each
individual Atma has a personal rapport with Him (Paramatma), and it is for Him
to decide which individual Atma deserves to receive His grace quickly, depending
upon the accumulated merits of that particular Atma in this present life, as
well as many previous lives. But, rest assured, He loves each and every
individual Atma, because all the individual Atmas (Jiva Atmas) are part of Him
and He is the totality of the individual Atmas (The Paramatma), just as all the
trees put together are known as a Forest.
So
awake, arise and march, before it is too late to have His Darshan. He has also
declared that soon the crowds at Prasanthi Nilayam will multiply manifold that
His Darshan will be available only from a distant place. May be from the top of
the hill and that too only His orange robe may be sighted. May be, soon, He may
disappear to an unknown far away place. He is the living God, who can do what He
wills or Commands.
THINK
IS
ATMA THE SAME IN EACH ONE OF US?
IS
EGO THE CAUSE OF MAN’S DESTRUCTION?
IS
DESIRE THE CAUSE OF MAN’S REBIRTH?
IS
ANGER DEADLIER THAN FIRE?
IS
GREED THE CAUSE OF MAN’S BONDAGE?
IS
ATTACHMENT THE CAUSE OF SORROW?
IS
BODY SUBJECT TO CHANGE AND PERISHABLE?
IS
LOVE THE ONLY WAY TO REALISE GOD?
IS
MAN GOD HIMSELF?
THINK YES AND YOU WILL NOT THINK AGAIN
YET IT IS THE BEGINNING OF THE AWARENESS OF
EACH ONE OF US. SO PLEASE BEWARE, AND BE AWARE, THAT LIFE IS FRAGILE, HANDLE
IT WITH PRAYER.
