| Sai Ram to all.... | | Wednesday, December 17, 2014 - #SBOI | | THOUGHT FOR THE DAY AS WRITTEN AT PRASANTHI NILAYAM TODAY | | | | You must know that there is no end to the incarnations in which God indulges. He has come down on countless occasions. Sometimes He comes with a part of His glory, sometimes with a fuller equipment of splendour, sometimes for a particular task, sometimes to transform an entire era of time or a complete continent of space. God is like the electric current that flows through various contrivances and expresses itself in many different activities. The wise see only the one uniform current; the ignorant feel that they are all distinct. The Holy Bhagavatha elaborates His Story that transforms humanity. The subject matter of the Bhagavatha is the drama enacted by the Avatar and the devotees who are drawn toward Him. Listening to it promotes the realisation of God. Many sages have testified to its efficacy and extolled the Bhagavatha, which they helped preserve for posterity. (Bhagavatha Vahini, Ch 1, "The Bhagavatha")

 | | Date: Tuesday, December 16, 2014 THOUGHT FOR THE DAY AS WRITTEN AT PRASANTHI NILAYAM TODAY | | Om is the sum and essence of all the teachings in scriptures about Divinity; "Om ithi ekaaksharam Brahma" states the Vedas, meaning, the one syllable Om, is Brahman, the Divine! Om is a composite of three sounds A (aa), U (oo) and M (mm). It has to be pronounced rising in a crescendo as slowly as possible, and as gradually coming down, until there remains only the echo of the silence reverberating in the cavity of your heart. Do not take it in two stages, arguing that your breath will not hold so long. Persevere until you are able to be stirred by the upward sweep and the downward curve and the silent sequel. These represent the waking, dreaming and sleeping, and the fourth, beyond the three stages. It represents also the flower of your individuality maturing into a fruit and filling you with sweet juice from your own inner essence, and thereafter the final release. (Divine Discourse, June 9, 1970) | | |
