God is Love.  Love is God. - BABA

Paramatma (Supreme Divinity) has six chief characteristics: Supreme wisdom, complete renunciation, divine beauty, the fullest splendour of power, undiminished fame, and inexhaustible fortune. Its nature is Sat (existence), Chit (knowledge) and Ananda (bliss). These qualities are related to everyone through the Atma. So all of you have the right to realize and enjoy these characteristics and this exalted nature. It is your ordained duty. The travails of the world today are due to humanity not performing this prescribed task.

God's happiness lies in the happiness of all. God does not need anything special for Himself. If you are truly happy, God will be happy. Whatever you do, let it be for the peace, welfare and happiness of all beings. God will surely bestow happiness upon you by correcting and forgiving your faults. You must live in unity and love. You have learnt that there are Panchapranas (Five Vital Airs) within every living being, i.e., Prana, Apana, Vyana, Udana and Samana.  In reality, the Panchapranas are nothing but Truth, Righteousness, Peace, Love and Non-Violence.

 Hcw   do the Sai Youth feel on receiving all these moving letters and accolades? “Well, this makes us happy but the greatest fact about this whole service activity is that each one of us felt the Divine Presence; it was as if Someone Higher was in charge, it wasn’t mere human effort.

"For instance, if the accident had happened even a hundred meters further down the route, certainly we would have had a lot of severe casualties. This is because after a few metres the rails climb high and the surrounding area becomes quite low.

 Even if someone through perversity or blind conceit has thus far not cultivated good qualities, they can at least make a try to secure them! If this is not done, the excellence of life cannot be tasted; it becomes a waste with no worth at all. The mind, by sheer force of negative impulses, gets lost in false values and is unable to develop along the right lines. Such a mind, turned away from good, might cause indescribable evil. All progress won by the sadhaka (spiritual aspirant) might get destroyed by such a mind in an unguarded instant because of a moment’s negligence!

 Doubts may arise in your minds when you hear the story of creation and the early history of man on earth. The processes of the Divine Will are mysterious wonders. They cannot be grasped by the faculties with which you measure earthly events. Often, they may strike you as devoid of any basis, but the Lord will never involve Himself in any deed without a proper cause. That Will need not be explicable. It is its own prompter. Everything everywhere is certainly due to His Will.

Forget the past, it’s dead and gone.  And that includes yesterday.  If we wallow in the sentiment that accompanies nostalgia for good times past, we miss living joyfully today.  The past has no value once any lessons have been learned.  And if you take a moment to notice, you may see that the origins of all feelings of sorrow or hurt lie in the past.  Every time you remember them you simply hurt yourself again.  Forget and move on.  Practice this every day, many times a day if necessary.  As you learn to ‘let go’ and weaken the habit of energising memories of the past, any emotional turmoil will subside and allow you to live much more in the moment.
