Today's Sai Inspires   Date: Wednesday, February 01, 2012 THOUGHT FOR THE DAY The task of every Avatar has been to protect the sadhus, punish the wicked and support right conduct (Dharma). By sadhus, I do not mean monks and ascetics alone, as it is generally understood. It means the ones who practice goodness, uprightness and virtue (sadhu-guna). Note that these can be possessed by animals and even insects. The promotion of Sathwa guna (purity) is the best means of fostering sadhus. Being the embodiment of this sacred Guna, the Avatar fosters it wherever people practising virtues are found. Sadhu also implies those persons who do not swerve from their duty, whatever be the temptation or threat. All those who follow right conduct, (Sadachara), who are virtuous (Sadsheela), who adhere to truth (Sathya), who yearn for the Divine presence (Sannidhi) of the Lord (Sarveswara), who observe Sad-dharma, who consider all (Sarvajana) as equal (Samaana); all of them are dear to Me and deserve My special attention. - Sri Sathya Sai Baba     Yesterday's thought   Date: Tuesday, January 31, 2012   Avatara Purushas (divine advents) have no merit or demerit accumulated in former births, unlike ordinary mortals. They do not have any balances to pay off in a birth. Theirs is a Leela (divine play), a birth taken on. The goodness of the good and the wickedness of the bad provide reasons for an Avatar of the Lord. As a result of the advent of the Lord, the good will be happy and the bad will suffer. The Avatar, however has no joy or grief, even when enveloped in the body it has assumed. The Avatar is not constituted of the five elements; it is chinmaya not mrinmaya - spiritual not material; it can never be disturbed by egoism or the sense of 'mine' and 'thine'; it is untouched by the delusion born of ignorance. Though men may mistake an Avatar as just human, that does not affect the Avatar's nature; an Avatar comes for a task and is always bound to accomplish it. - Sri Sathya Sai Baba       [ Mensaje de la Pizarra de Prashanti Nilayam  - En Español ]
