THOUGHT FOR THE DAY AS WRITTEN AT PRASANTHI NILAYAM TODAY   Date: Friday, September 13, 2013 THOUGHT FOR THE DAY Treading the Spiritual Path (Sadhana) is very essential because the effects of karma have to be removed by karma alone, as a thorn can be removed only by another thorn. You cannot remove a thorn by a knife, or a hammer or even a sword. The knowledge that the world is unreal was spread by great saints and noble souls, who realised the Divine. But great saints like Shankaracharya persisted in activity in the unreal world, through the establishments of mutts, writing of books and participating in difficult debates. This is to illustrate that you cannot desist from doing karma. However, you must take care that it is saturated with love and promotes the welfare of the world. Soak yourself in Love and purify your thoughts and deeds with Love, then the Lord Himself will awaken your higher consciousness! ~ Sri Sathya Sai Baba -------------SBOI------------- www.saibabaofindia.com "SBOI"         Date: Thursday, September 12, 2013 Yesterday's thought        Intellectual scholarship is not very essential for a spiritual aspirant. Develop bliss not by merely mastering difficult scriptures but by cultivating love which begins in your very own home and family, and spreads to all creatures in the Universe. Put down the sharp edged weapon that seeks to analyse and chop the arguments of the opponent, cutting the other's point of view to pieces. Take the delicacy of love and distribute it to one and all; win over recalcitrant hearts and give joy to all. That is the path of love, along which I shall lead you and guide you. God knows your name, your degrees, profession, status and past, and reveals Himself to you many times, only to satisfy you and give you a glimpse of His love, so that you can mix it with a little of your own and make your life joyful. ~ Sri Sathya Sai Baba   -------------SBOI------------- www.saibabaofindia.com "SBOI"     Join Us on Facebook Just a reminder, if you are on Facebook then you should join our Sai Ram Facebook-page.

The programme commenced at 0820 hrs. after 20-mts of Rudram chanting. The half-an-hour programme had some of the Ashtakams of Lord Vinayaka followed by some keertans… an all Ganesha bhajan followed and the programme ended with Mangala Arathi at 0930 hrs. In the evening the programme commenced at 1700 hrs. with an introductory speech by Sri Sai Giridhar Sai Ram, Doctoral Research Scholar with Dept Of Chemistry at SSSIHL, Prasanthi Nilayam Campus. Bharatiya Culture is replete with festivals and one needs to ponder over the greater significance of the same, said the young research scholar speaking about the country's greater fortune to have Bharat Bhagya Vidatha Himself, Bhagawan, Who is teaching and moulding the country through various religious festivals. Sri Giridhar then spoke about how Bhagawan subtly teaches elevating His devotees to higher spiritual realms, based on his own experience from the 2004 Ganesha Chaturthi. Quoting Bhagawan's Own Words that, when you are able to think of Me, know that you have My abundant grace, the young speaker continued speaking of the importance of channelizing Divine Blessings in the right direction by illustrating the famous Ganesha story wherein He emerged the winner over his elder Brother Karthikeya, by circumambulating His Divine Parents instead of going around the physical universe. Bhagawan's Divine discourse followed next. Expounding on the significance of the worship of Vinayaka…Bhagawan said, everyone has a master above him…but Vinayaka has no Over Lord above Him…Explaining the physiological features with respect to human heart and blood circulation system Bhagawan then said Vinayaka has subtle significance of conferring good health. Students read all unwanted stuff these days, they should in turn read His Story…sacred literature…said Bhagawan ending His Divine discourse with the bhajan Hari Bhajana Binaa Sukha Shanthi Nahi… An all Ganesha Bhajan session ensued ended with Mangala Arathi at 1815 hrs.
