Sri N. Kasturi was admitted in the hospital on August 7. ,1987 with low blood pressure and bleeding at rectum. An intravenous drip was started and the patient was on a conservative line of management On 14 August 1987, he passed a lot of blood clots. Swami came ,and stood before him ,” Kasturi,see who has come . See Swami has come to you . Go on looking at Me, don’t think of the past,don’t think of your son Murty , don’t think of anything else, you only think of Me. Kasturi kept on looking at Swami with a smiling face. Swami materialised Vibhuti and gave it in the hands of Mr. Kasturi’s daughter, Padma ,and asked her to put it in water and give her father sips of it to drink . Swami walked down to the central hall of the hospital and called Dr. Chari, ” “Chari, Kasturi is very popular person in Karnataka State He was a radio artist There will be an announcement in All India Radio. So, the funeral must be very grand. You arrange for music bands for the funeral procession ” Dr. Chari said,” Yes, Swami,” Swami was laughing and then said,” Chari only one band is enough.” Swami continued,”Do you know why? ” Swami turned and looked at the doctors with a mischievous smile and said,” Do you know why one music band? Our doctors will start the first music band They chant ” OM Sri Sairam” in such a way that even if the soul doesn’t want to leave the body, it will leave the body immediately. ” Swami laughed loudly and said,” you,doctors yes, you can start now” The doctors were looking at each other and Swami said,” Go to his room and start” They went to Kasturi’s room He kept on looking at Swami’s photo and he closed his eyes peacefully. He stopped breathing on 14 August, 1987. What a humorous send off by Bhagawan to a humourist and poet. #sathyasai #saibhakta

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY- God has endowed you with a body and so every limb and sense-organ is worthy of reverent attention. Each must be used for His glory. The ear must exult when it gets a chance to hear the wonderful tales of God. The tongue must exult when it can praise Him. Else, your tongue is as effective as that of frogs on the marshy bank which croak day and night! An animal (pasu) fears; a beast (mriga) terrifies! Being afraid of someone or something is an animal tendency and bullying others is a demonic tendency. You should have neither! Your human body is gifted to you for a grand purpose – to realise the Lord within. If you own a fully loaded car in good running condition, would you keep it in the garage? Would you not drive it to where you need to go? So too, learn to use the faculties of body, senses, intellect, and mind, and achieve your goal! (Divine Discourse, Feb 18, 1966) -BABA- #sathyasai #saibhakta

What was the mistake that Ravana did and what can we learn from his life? Bhagawan lovingly reminds us today. Ravana had vast knowledge of spiritual texts. His ten heads represent the learning he had earned from the six Shastras (scriptures) and the four Vedas. But he never put that knowledge to any use. He craved for the possession of Prakriti (material objects) alone; he wanted to master the world of matter, the objective world. But he was not tamed by the spirit. He discarded the Purusha, the Lord; he was content with the possession at Lanka, of Prakriti (Matter), represented by Mother Sita. That was why he fell. Like the monkey which could not pull its hand from out of the narrow-necked pot, because it first held in its grasp a handful of groundnuts which the pot contained, people too are suffering today, as they are unwilling to release their hold on the handful of pleasurable things they have grasped from the world. One is led into the wrong belief that the accumulation of material possessions will endow them with joy and calm. But Divine Love alone can give that everlasting joy. – Divine Discourse, Feb 28, 1964. #sathyasai #saibhakta

Sai Inspires from Prasanthi Nilayam, WEDNESDAY , NOVEMBER 1, 2017 How should we take care of our body so that we may yield a bountiful harvest of love, peace and joy? Bhagawan lovingly guides us today. Do not yield to the snares of friends or society or miscalled social conventions and become prey to smoking and other such bad habits. They destroy health, happiness, energy and even charm. Smoke disfigures your face and denigrates your lungs. It debilitates you and makes you diseased. The body is the temple of the Lord; keep it in good and strong condition. This skeletal cage or body is the Hasthinapuram, where we have the blind king, Dhritarashtra, the symbol of ignorance, as well as Yudhistira, the symbol of wisdom. Let the forces of Yudhistira win with the help of Sri Krishna. Let the tongue, accustomed to the bitterness of the margosa fruit of worldly triumphs and disasters, taste the sweet honey of remembering the Lord’s name. Experiment with this and you will be surprised at the result. You can feel the vast improvement in peace and stability in you and around you. Learn this easy lesson, get immersed in joy, and let others also share that joy with you. (Divine Discourse, Sep 2, 1958) Anger breeds danger. Remove the roots of the weed of egoism from the field of your heart, that is true Sadhana- BABA #sathyasai #saibhakta

What is the clarion call that Bhagawan gives to everyone who believes in service? Bhagawan lovingly underscores today the important change that all of us who serve must experience. Nurture the will to give, the will to renounce the little for the big and the momentary for the sake of the momentous! The Sevadal badge you wear is not a decoration item which can be secured without a price. It is a symbol of high character, generous feelings and steady and sincere endeavour. It is the external indicator of internal enthusiasm and strength, skill and faith. As iron is drawn by the magnet, and when you allow these qualities to shine through you, it will draw the dejected, the downcast and the distressed towards you. If you are proud and self-centred, blind to the kinship that binds all in fraternal love, the badge is a betrayal. Mere sentiment and empathy are of no use; they must be regulated by intelligence and skill. It is not the quantity of service you do that matters; nor is the variety. It is the inner joy, the love that you radiate that is important. – Divine Discourse, May 19, 1969. #sathyasai #saibhakta

Importance of Human Birth As explained by Bhagavan Sri Sathya Sai Baba ********* Sri Sathya Sai Baba has said: “A human birth is the most sacred one among the 84 lakhs (84,00,000) of different living beings in this creation. To attain such a sacred birth is a great fortune, indeed.” (Ref.: Baba the Breath of Sai, Page 311) “The traditional number of created beings is 84 lakhs, and man is the final item of the evolutionary procession; but, why did the number stop at 84 lakhs? It stopped because man is the zenith, the fullness; he is Madhav in fact, though he has ignored the truth and holds fast to the belief that he is just a man. He is endowed with Manas, Buddhi, Chitta and Ahankaar (Mind, Intelligence, Reasoning faculty and Ego), all four, in an integrated personality, whereas the birds and beasts and all other species have mostly Ahankaar (Ego) alone. The lives of the later are centred round the aham and its desires and demands. But, man has the capacity to follow Satya, Dharma, Shanti and Prem; man alone has it. If he does not evince that capacity and develop it, he is as bad as a Vaanar or a Daanav (Ape or Ogre). When man was created, there remained nothing higher to create.” (SSS Vol. 6-15) “Having taken birth thousand and thousand of cores of times, as a result of the accumulated merits, at some time the being gets the human birth. Having obtained the human birth which is difficult to get and which is like a step to Liberation who is more sinful than him who does not uplift himself.” (Garuda Puran and Sai Teachings, Path to Liberation, Page 29) “Man is the most sacred of all the animals. To be born as a man is an extraordinary gift. Therefore, man must use this life of his in a purposeful manner. The disciples of Shankar (Lord Shiv) have pointed out that man remains in a miserable state in the womb of the mother during this cycle of birth and death. He gets some relief from such suffering after his birth. Therefore, he must make life a sacred one.” (Baba the Breath of Sai, Page 108) #sathyasai #saibhaķta

Man is equipped with a return-ticket when he takes birth.. Holding it in his grasp, he earns and spends, rises and falls, sings and dances, weeps and wails, forgetting the end of the journey.. But though he forgets, the wagon of life moves toward the cemetery., which is its terminus.. It brings no glory to man if he is tied helplessly to the wheel of birth and death.. His glory and greatness consist in disentangling himself from that revolving wheel.. ~ Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba ~ Be selfless & unconditional and let the rest handled by the ONE SOURCE (Swami / God).. #sathyasai #saubhabm

*_BHAGAVAN UVACHA_* *_” Whether you come to Me or not, You are Mine. This Siva Matha, this Sai Matha has the love of a thousand mothers towards Her children; that is why I do so much lalana (fondling) and so much palana (nurturing). Whenever I appear to be angry, remember, it is only love in another form. For, I have not even an atom of anger in Me; I just evince My_* *_disappointment that you do not shape as I direct. When I direct you along a line of action, reflect on My advice. You have full liberty to do so; in fact, I shall be happy if you do so. I do not like_* *_slavish obedience. If you feel that it will help you reach the goal, follow it; if not, go to some other place. But let Me tell you one thing: Wherever you go, you will only reach Me. I am everywhere. “_* *_Sri Sathya Sai Baba_* #sathyasai #saibhakta

What is the secret to lead a life of peace and bliss in life? Bhagawan lovingly explains with an example. Sage Narada, who had mastered the many sciences and arts, could not secure the supreme bliss that comes from peace of mind. Troubled by this lack of peace he approached the sage Sanatkumara and asked him what was the cause of his condition. The sage asked Narada what were his accomplishments. Narada told the sage that he was proficient in all the Vedas and Vedantas and had mastered the sixty-four different sciences including the training of elephants and the rearing of cows. Laughing within himself, sage Sanatkumara asked: “Are these your only accomplishments? Oh Narada, without knowing who you are, what is the use of knowing all other things?” People make various attempts to understand everything in the world. But no one makes any effort to understand oneself. An enormous amount of time is spent on understanding other things, but man cannot find the time to know himself. Whatever one’s scholarship, intelligence or position, one cannot have peace of mind and happiness if one does not know the real Self. – Divine Discourse, Sep 3, 1990. #sathyasai #saibhakta

The Story behind the photo – 161 – The Lord rescues you from Karmic effects. It was a classical late evening time in Kodaikanal. After Bhajans and Darshan times, the students accompanying Bhagavan, were sitting in front of Swami. Sometimes Bhagavan encourages the boys to ask questions and from there Swami will give discourses to those selective audiences. It will be a wonderful and thrilling sessions with the Lord. One day the topic of Guru – Sishya relationship and God and devotees relationship came up for discussions. Swami makes it look very easy, all these high level spiritual subjects. A guru, if he is a genuine Guru, can show the spiritual Path to his disciple, and guide him in his spiritual Sadhana. But the Lord when pleased with the devotee can lift him and expedite his spiritual journey by helping to overcome the hurdles of Bad Karmic effects. There was a small example also (Oka china Udhaharnamu>.).. A disciple falls from a hill, to the depth of a valley. To save him, the guru throws a strong rope to him and asks him to hold on to the rope steadily and try to climb up. There after, it is up to the disciple to have a strong grip on the rope, and to put all his efforts to climb up inch by inch. The Guru shows the path, and disciple has to tread the path for safety. But the God do not use a rope at all. God can rescue and save a devotee all by Himself. The devotee has to just submit and surrender to God. Here Bhagavan tells about the Marjaara marg, (the cat and Kitten method). The young kitten has just to submit and the mother will pick it up with her mouth, and takes it to safe places. Swami expect the same type of devotion and surrender attitude. When your attitude is attuned to highest level of Saranagathi (surrender), the rescue operation will also be smoother and faster. With Love & Regards, Mumbai Srinivasan. #sathyasai #saibhakta

The moment you develop detachment… Swami:” The worldly relationships are all a flight of imagination by one’s mind. They are not real and lasting. As long as you think that a particular object or a person is yours, you will develop attachment to that object or person. The moment you develop detachment to that object person, there will no longer be any distraction of the mind due to that person or object. When you realise the truth ‘I am I only and nothing else’ , you will be free from this Samyoga ( coming together) and Viyoga (separation) with or from objects or persons in the world.” Samastha Lokah Sukhino Bhavanthu #sathyasai #Saibhakta

Why are lamps lit on Diwali, Swami lovingly explains.. “Five thousands years ago, there were some planets (going round the earth). Some of these planets disappeared from time to time. There was one planet called Naraka, which used to go round the earth. In the course of their orbits, sometimes the moon and the Naraka planet used to get close to each other. At one time, the Naraka planet appeared to be approaching close to the earth. The inhabitants of the earth were filled with dread of the approaching catastrophe. They prayed to the Lord for averting the imminent disaster and saving them. At that stage, Sri Krishna used his extraordinary knowledge (Prajnaa) to destroy the planet. This extraordinary knowledge of Krishna was termed “Sathya”. That is to say, Krishna destroyed the Naraka planet in association with “Sathya”. The denizens of the world started celebrating that day with the lighting of lamps and adoring the Lord who saved them. That day of the Lord’s triumph was celebrated as a festive occasion.” Sai Baba. SS. 12/91. p. 327 #sathyasai #saibhakta

On the Occasion of Swami’s AVATAR DECLARATION DAY, I wish all my brothers & sisters a Happy, Peaceful, Long, Healthy & Divine Life <3 <3 <3 20th October every year is celebrated as the Avatar Declaration Day. It is on this historically significant day in the year 1940 that the young lad Sathyanarayana Raju revealed to the world His Divine identity and the glorious mission on which He has come. The following lines capture the events on that epochal day: Sathyanarayana started for school as usual. However, within a few minutes, He returned to the house. Standing on the outer doorstep, He cast aside the books He was carrying and called out, “I am no longer your Sathya. I am Sai.” The sister-in-law came from the kitchen, only to be blinded by the splendour of the halo around Baba's head! He addressed her, “I am going; I don't belong to you; Maya (delusion) has gone; My Bhaktas (devotees) are calling Me; I have My Work; I can't stay here any longer." When the brother hurried home on hearing all this, Baba only told him, "Give up all your efforts to 'cure' Me. I am Sai; I do not consider Myself related to you". In spite of repeated pleas, Sathya would not step into that building again. He moved in into the garden of the Excise Inspector Sri Anjaneyulu's bungalow, and sat on a rock in the midst of the trees. People came into the garden from all directions bringing flowers, fruits, incense and camphor to worship Him. The garden resonated with the voices of hundreds singing bhajans (devotional singing) and following the lines of the first prayer that Sri Sathya Sai taught them. “Manasa Bhajare Gurucharanam Dusthara Bhava Sagara Tharanam “ (O Mind! Meditate on the Feet of the Guru, which will take you across the wearisome sea of Samsara or worldly existence.) To celebrate this landmark event in Baba’s life, the Avatar Declaration Day is celebrated every year with devotion and gratitude. Excerpts from Bhagawan’s Discourses: In 2002, Avatar Declaration Day discourse Swami recalled His childhood days and shared with everyone His early years. #sathyasai #Saibhakta

*HIS STORY IN HIS VOICE:* Sri Sathya Sai Baba narrates what happened on 20th October 1940 in Uravakonda, (about 5 hours from Puttaparthi) when He declared to the world He is Sathya Sai Baba.

Sri Sathya Sai Message to The Differently Abled Sunday, October 01, 1995 Bhagavan distributed to a large number of artificial limbs, calipers etc. which were made to size by technicians from Jaipur Foot Industries, to handicapped people in Sai Kulwant Hall on 1st October 1995. The recipients were filled with gratitude for His blessings.  Sri Sathya Sai distributing Tricycles at Prasanthi Nilayam In the Discourse that followed He said: “Human life is immensely precious. But this sacred life is haunted by troubles of various kinds of daily living. Life is like an ocean carrying waves of pleasures and pain. In his ordinary life man is driven by innumerable desires to seek worldly pleasures of various kinds. This precious life is rendered meaningless and worthless by the pursuit of these mundane desires. The body is essential for living. Without it man cannot accomplish anything. Human life is a composite of body, mind, and spirit. But man today ignores the mind and spirit and wastes his life by preoccupation with the body alone. The mind is the most important organ in the body. It is vital for doing anything. Man’s life is based on the mind. The universe is filled with mental consciousness. The cosmos is rooted in the mind. The mind is a bundle of thoughts. Hence man has to purify the mind by sacred thoughts. Only when he has noble thoughts he can lead an ideal life. Out of thoughts are born the desires. Desires activate the mind. Hence it is necessary to keep desires under control. Dharma can be achieved through the body alone Society tends to look askance at persons with physical disabilities. But limbs are not so very important. What is more essential is a pure mind. If all one’s limbs are perfect, but if one’s mind is impure, of what use are the limbs? However, man can achieve what he desires, only if all the limbs in the body are in good shape. Man should make good use of all his organs to lead an ideal life. Every living being has come into existence for a purpose. Hence everyone should strive to use his body for the purpose for which he has been endowed with it. #sathyasai #saibhakta

Conversations with Sri Sathya Sai on the Convocation Drama Casting Monday, October 16, 2000 After the interview, Swami came to the Ganesh portico. He looked at His wrist as if to see time. Then to a student… Swami: It is already 4.05 pm, Brindavan boys have not come. Student: (He checked the time in his watch.) Yes, Swami. They may be on the way. Sri Sathya Sai in the Sai Kulwant Hall at Prasanthi Nilayam Swami went further and sat on His chair. He inquired about the teachers who are doing the security duty in the fourth block. He also called the Brindavan Warden, and asked him about the students who are going to play different roles in the Convocation Drama. Few of the students came forward. Swami: (To Prof. Anil Kumar) The drama has roles of grandfather, father and a grandson. There are also scenes of Markandeya (Markandeya is an ancient sage from the Hindu tradition, born in the clan of Bhrigu Rishi. He is celebrated as a devotee of both Shiva and Vishnu and is mentioned in a number of stories from the Puranas. The Markandeya Purana especially, comprises a dialogue between Markandeya and Sage Jaimini, and a number of chapters in the Bhagavata Purana are dedicated to his conversations and prayers. In the drama, the episode of Markandeya, Shiva and Yama was to be depicted.) and Dhurva (Dhruva is a devotee of Lord Vishnu and the son of Utthanapaada. His story is recorded in the Vishnu Purana and the Bhagavata Purana.). (To Dr. Chatterjee, Faculty Member in the Department of English at Swami’s University) How many scenes? Teacher: Six scenes, Swami. Swami: Arishadvargas (Six bad qualities in man). Give the grandfather role to Anil Kumar. (To Prof. Anil Kumar) Will you do? Prof. A. K.: Yes, Swami. Swami: Grandfather is a bad man. Prof. A. K.: Then I don’t want to do that role. Swami: No, he is good man. His grandson is always near him. I am not involved in the selections (of the students for the different roles in the Convocation Drama). They (teachers from both the campuses) only selected. Swami said that they should not feel that Swami is partial to any one campus in selecting the roles and hence teachers are selecting. #sathyasai #saibhakta

Pensamento para o dia 06/10/2017 Em templos ou casas, você pode ter visto pessoas que quebram cocos para oferecer a Deus. Se você tentar quebrá-lo, assim como caiu da árvore, você conseguirá? Não! A cobertura externa fibrosa deve ser removida para primeiro expor a semente. A fibra protege a semente e a deixa crescer, evitando os golpes do ambiente. A libertação resulta de quebrar a mente cheia de caprichos e desejos. Mas como você pode quebrá-la quando a armadura fibrosa dos desejos sensuais a engloba? Então, com cuidado e persistência, remova-os e dedique sua mente a Deus! Quebre-a em Sua presença. Nesse exato momento, você estará liberto! A fibra mais resistente é a raiva. É realmente a sujeira mais pegajosa! Quando você se irrita, esquece tudo e rapidamente desce à mais baixa profundeza. Você perde todo discernimento durante a agitação. Fique atento! Cultive as virtudes assiduamente. A virtude é sua respiração vital, o caráter é a espinha dorsal. (Discurso Divino, 10 de outubro de 1964) Sathya Sai Baba #sathyasai #saibhakta

” People go about the country pretending to be highly advanced experts in Japa and Dhyana so that they can collect huge audiences. Spiritual attainment shuns publicity. Spiritual practice is to be done in silence away from public gaze. Some persons may claim to be superior or supreme, but though they have reached heights, their eyes are roaming like those of vultures, searching the plains for food; their thoughts are low. Save yourselves by your own effort; acquire discrimination and realise the Truth.” Sri Sathya Sai Baba #sathyasai #saibhakta

Sweet Divine Memories Sweet memories, Divine experiences, all flash through my mind very often, I always feel truly blessed for the varied Divine experiences. With His blessings, I had tried to weave the various sequences of His Grace into a garland in the form of a Book, SRI SATHYA SAI HRUDAYA NIVASI, and offered the same at His Lots Feet. It would be a great revelation to experience how the Grace of Lord Sai, flows to you, when you completely surrender to HIM, and lead your life, following His Divine Directions.

I do not want you to prostrate before me,or my picture or any shrine,or place of workship of mine.if you are not able to humbly bow down,before my decisions i make for your life.your prostrating before my statue is meaningless,if there is no surrender from you if there is no acceptance of my will,if you are going to judge me,bow to the lord with humbleness and humility.bow to the lord with patience.bow to the lord with surrender,surrender of your body, your mind and your soul. #sathyasai #saibhakta
