"It's best not to get too excited or too depressed
by the ups and downs of life."
-- Dalai Lama

Put the Glass Down

A professor began his class by holding up a glass with some water in it. He held it up for all to see and asked the students,' How much do you think this glass weighs?'

'50gms!'.... '100gms!'.....'125gms'...the students answered.

What would happen if I held it up like this for a few minutes?

'Nothing' the students said.

'Ok what would happen if I held it up like this for an hour?' the professor asked.

'Your arm would begin to ache' said one of the students.

You're right, now what would happen if I held it for a day?'

'Your arm could go numb, you might have severe muscle stress and paralysis and have to go to hospital for sure!' ventured another student and all the students laughed.

'Very good. But during all this, did the weight of the glass change?’ asked the professor.

'No'

'Then what caused the arm ache and the muscle stress?'

'Put the glass down!' said one of the students.

'Exactly!' said the professor.' Life's problems are something like this. Hold it for a few minutes in your head and they seem OK. Think of them for a long time & they begin to ache. Hold it even longer and they begin to paralyze you.'

It's important to think of the challenges (problems) in your life, but EVEN more important to 'put them down' at the end of every day before you go to sleep. That way, you are not stressed, you wake up every day fresh and strong & can handle any issue, any challenge that comes your way!

So, when you leave office today, remember to 'PUT THE GLASS DOWN TODAY!'

Be a seeker for the truth and...

 

 Rakh Saburi Woh Manzar Bhi Aayega...,

Sai Ke Paas Chal Ke Ek Din Tu Bhi Jaayega..,

Thak Kar Na Baith Ae Sai Ke Musafir..,

"SAI" Khud Teri Manzil Lekar Aayega..."

Nine qualities a devotee should have...

1. Absence of egoism
2. Absence of jealousy
3. Untiring service
4. Absence of worldly desires
5. Complete faith in Guru
6. Peaceful nature
7. Desire to know the truth
8. Absence of envy, and
9. Absence of self-boasting and finding faults in others.

Unless a devotee improved these nine qualities, he could not have true devotion to reach God. Thus Baba taught to Lakshmi Bai even in his last moments.

Good Life

How people treat you is their Karma

Commit Yourself to Human Service, And Receive BABA'S Grace.

This is the way to happiness. 

Let others and the world turn topsy-turvy, but do not mind that; keep on to your own straight course.

Kitni Dilkash hain hamare Satguru ki Baatein...

Simran karo to Mann Sawar jaye...
Sewa karo to Tann Sawar jaye...
Kitni Dilkash hain hamare Satguru ki Baatein...
Amal karo to Janam Sawar jaye.

Read Sai leelas and feel His presence.

The kind and merciful Sai Baba said many a time the following sweet words in the Masjid : "He who loves Me most, always sees Me. The whole world is desolate to him without Me, he who tells no stories but Mine; he ceaselessly meditates upon Me and always chants My name. I feel indebted to him who surrenders himself completely to Me, and ever remembers Me.

I shall repay his debt by giving him salvation (self-realization).

I am dependent on him, who thinks and hungers after Me and who does not eat anything, without first offering it to Me.

He who thus comes to Me, becomes one with Me, just as a river gets to the sea and becomes merged (one) with it.

So, leaving out pride and egoism and with no trace of them, you should surrender yourself to Me, Who is seated in your heart."
