Today's Sai Inspires   Date: Sunday, February 05, 2012 THOUGHT FOR THE DAY In Mahabharatha, Krishna declared to Arjuna that fostering of Dharma is His work. The term Sadhu refers to one who does not deviate from his duty. The wicked revel in creating trouble for such men and in indulging in acts contrary to the injunctions of the scriptures. What then is the establishment of Dharma? It is acting strictly according to the tenets laid down in the scriptures; spreading among people the glory and the splendour of a life lived in Dharma; stabilising reverence towards the holy scriptures, towards God, Avatars and Paramapurushas (evolved souls) and the Sadhana (spiritual practices) that leads to liberation and blessedness beyond this life. It is called Dharma-samsthaapana, Dharmarakshana or Dharmoddhaarana (establishment, protection or revival of righteousness). "Whatever I do, it is for this high purpose; nothing is for My own advancement. Those who know this secret can escape birth and death," said Krishna. - Sri Sathya Sai Baba Yesterday's thought   Date: Saturday, February 04, 2012 It is dedication to the Lord that sanctifies all activities. He is the prompter, executor, the giver of the required strength and skill, and the one who enjoys the fruit thereof. So dedication must come naturally to you, for all is His, and nothing is yours! Your duty is to believe that He is the impeller of your activities and draw strength from that belief. Until the wound heals and the new skin hardens, the bandage must protect the place. So too, until reality within is realized, the balm of faith, holy company and holy thoughts must be applied to the ego-affected mind. Develop good habits, mix in the company of the pious, do good deeds and serve those in distress - all these steps will lead you into the glorious path of Self-Knowledge. Take to this discipline from now and save yourselves from grief and distress. I bless that you get the will to do so and to persist until success is won.   - Sri Sathya Sai Baba
