Sai Inspires, 28.JUN.2019 Om Sri Sai Ram Knowledge of the True Self (Atma Jnana) dawns only when you have purity of heart (Chitta Shuddhi). This purity can be achieved only through righteous discharge of all your assigned duties (karmas). The body, the mind and the Atma – all three are inextricably interdependent. When they are separate, life loses its meaning. When the body is submissive to the mind and the mind is controlled by the Atma, life finds fulfilment. When the body alone is predominant, the human descends to the level of the animal. When mind prevails over body and senses, human level is attained. When Atmaprevails over mind and body, Divinity is realised. Hence, Geeta recommends a three-step path to Divinity. Engaging the body in good deeds, using the mind to develop good thoughts, and thus becoming qualified to contemplate on God through Upasana(worship)! Continue on the path, you will reach the stage when like a river joining the ocean you will merge in the Divine. – Divine Discourse, Sep 28, 1984 Sathya Sai Baba http://bit.ly/2FTXeXk #sathyasai #saibhakta #sathyasaibaba #saibaba #saimaa
