BHAGAVAN’S MESSAGE OF SERVICE FOR THE WEEK

Never get yourselves entangled in politics. Keep yourselves away from all political activities. Continue your sacred social work and sanctify your time by chanting the Divine Name. Follow your chosen path with determination and achieve success. Today selfishness is rampant in the field of politics. You should lead a life of selfless
service contemplating on God all the time and thus redeem yourselves.

BHAGAVAN’S GENERAL MESSAGE FOR THE WEEK

Every man must necessarily make efforts to realize the principle of Atma, which is present in all. The sweetness of Atmic experience is unparalleled. In the spiritual field, what one has to attain is the experience of Atmic bliss. He, who realizes the inherent divinity in humanity is a true human being. The Atma has no specific form. It is full of love and bliss. This has to be realized and experienced by every individual. One may know the nature of an individual, but it is not possible to understand and estimate the nature of the Atma. In order to understand the principle of Atma, you have to emulate the ideals demonstrated by Rama and His brothers.

One day as the brothers were playing a game, Bharata came running, sat on the lap of Mother Kausalya and complained, ""Mother, whenever I am about to lose the game, Rama manages to lose and makes me the winner."' Lakshmana, Bharata and Satrughna would tell their mothers that it was their great good fortune that they had Rama as their elder brother. They would praise Rama saying, He was full of love and nowhere they could find a brother like Him. They always wanted to be in the company of Rama and serve Him. There was such unity and
love among them. They enjoyed intimate and inseparable relationship. Even today, there are many such brothers in the world. But, the situation of the world is such that people are not encouraged to practice brotherhood of man. Our institutions should demonstrate the ideal of brotherhood and show the way to the rest of the world. You call each other brothers and sisters. Mere verbal _expression will not suffice; it should be reflected in your conduct. While in exile, Rama would not bear separation from Lakshmana even for a moment. He would anxiously ask Sita about Lakshmana's whereabouts whenever he was not found by His side. In. this manner, Rama taught the ideal of brotherhood by His example.

THE FAMOUS WORDS OF BHAGAVAN SRI SATHYA SAI BABA

Serve the poor with love. That alone can redeem you. Service to the poor is service to God. Sacrifice your life for the cause of the poor. Service to the poor is My only motto. I have no other desires. I am prepared to sacrifice even My life to serve the poor. Do atleast one thousandth part of what Swami is doing. Of what use is human life if it is not spent in the service of the poor?

HELPING SWAMI’S MISSION

Eventhough the Sathya Sai Organization does not entertain any collection of money from its members and public by canvassing and advertising. It is worth that at least a word of swami’s projects should be known to public so any good soul can think of donating any money to those projects. Swami’s projects need wide support from the global community. Help ever Hurt Never. Jai Sai Ram.

Avathars are engaged in selfless service (seva); that is why Avathars happen. Offering service to mankind pleases Avathars. ... I am active and busy twenty-four hours a day. ... I have never craved a minute's rest or sleep or relief.
