THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
When in a helpless state people cry to God lamenting "Oh God, why do you put me to such suffering, anxiety and worry, and test me like this?" God does not give us any pleasure or pain. Whatever you go through is your own making. God is just the postman; He hands over all the covers that are addressed to you. He will deliver anything – card, money order or the covers that are meant for you. Whatever results or effects the contents have on you have nothing to do with the postman. In the same manner, all that you experience is the result of your own actions. They are not given by God. There is something fundamental about pleasure and pain. It is we who have deserved that experience based on our actions done either in this life or in the previous one. In difficult times, pray to God selflessly with a sacred and pure heart for His 'Special Grace' to protect and help you. (Divine Discourse, "My Dear Students", Vol 3, Ch 3, June 30, 1996)
-Sri Sathya Sai Baba

YESTERDAY'S THOUGHT
There is immeasurable strength and great power within us. Today, we have many satellites which go into space. Who created them? It is our scientists. How did they achieve this? This is because of the power that is already manifest in them. They worked hard and further developed that capability in them, and then the power to achieve the goal manifested. So too, if you develop that power through hard work, you too can accomplish great things. In every being, there is complete Divine Power. How can we use that power to attain God? Assume there is a small drop of water. When under hot Sun, it evaporates within a moment. However if you pour these few drops of water into the sea, they merge and become one with the ocean. So too, with adequate effort, if you lose your individual identity to the Supreme, then you too merge in Him and become One with Him. (Divine Discourse, "My Dear Students", Vol 3, Ch 2, March 19, 1998)
-Sri Sathya Sai Baba
