| Date: Friday, July 25, 2014 | | | Is there any object in the world without a creator? Consider a loud speaker. It has the power to broadcast sound, way beyond any individual's voice and must take someone with required knowledge and skill to design and produce it. He or she may be in Germany, Switzerland or Japan, and perhaps invisible to you! Without that person, would this loudspeaker have come into existence? No! Similarly for everything that you enjoy in this world, there is a Creator. The stars that twinkle, the Sun and the Moon that illumine the world have been created by a Supreme Infinite Power. It is obvious to us that no ordinary person can create these super objects and ensure they are still working, after billions of years. Scriptures (Vedas) describe to us that this Super Power is Aprameya (One beyond description, beyond all proofs and limitations). The primary objective of every being in this Universe must be to seek and understand this Infinite Power. (My Dear Students, Vol 2, Ch 15,Mar 1, 1981)  -Sri Sathya Sai Baba | | Date: Thursday, July 24, 2014 | | | The moment a bad thought comes, you must teach your mind, "Oh mind, are you on the path of human values or on the path of an animal? This thought is an animal thought – you are not an animal." Train your mind saying, "Oh mind, human beings are not meant to eat, sleep and enjoy pleasures. Shed all animal qualities, give up previous habits and old ways. You must get away from all evil". If you thus teach your mind, its speed will be lessened and the flow of thoughts will change. You must consistently teach your mind to transform your thoughts. There will be difficulties in the process. But let them come – the one who works hard and passes through these hardships will enjoy abundant peace. Without effort, there cannot be gain or pleasure. Hence don't worry about difficulties.
