Date: Wednesday, October 24, 2012 THOUGHT FOR THE DAY Many often believe and state in the spirit of surrender: "I offer to You my body, my mind, my possessions, my all." This is incorrect and is a sign of ignorance. It concedes that you and God are distinct entities. God is not separate from you, for God is in all, everywhere, at all times. (Ishwarassarva-bhoothaanaam). How then can you or God be apart? To see God in everything, everywhere, at all times, is true surrender (Sharanaagathi). Repetition of mantras (holy formulae) and platform speeches on holy texts alone is not true devotion. The real devotee is one whose deeds are in accordance with the words of advice they utter. Devotion cannot tolerate in a devotee, the slightest trace of envy or jealousy. Make your daily life holy and pure. Render your life worth-while through service to man and service to society. That is the most important aspect of surrendering the self. - Sri Sathya Sai Baba     Prasanthi News:  Sri Sathya Sai Baba news, updates, Live Videos & Photos - MahaSamadhi...   Live Video Webcast of the Poornaahuti (Concluding Session) of the Dasara Yajna from Prasanthi Nilayam at 9.15 a.m.: Updates!Veda Purusha Saptaha Jnana Yajna     Date: Tuesday, October 23, 2012 Yesterday's thought Your heart is the ceremonial altar; your body is the fire place; your hair is the holy grass, darbha; wishes are the fuel-sticks with which the fire is fed; desire is the ghee (clarified butter) that is poured into the fire to make it burst into flame; anger is the sacrificial animal; the fire is the tapas (penance) you accomplish. People sometimes interpret tapas as ascetic practices like standing on one leg, and so on. No, tapas is not physical contortion. It is the complete and correct coordination of thought, word and deed. When all words emanating from you are sweet, your breath becomes Rig Veda. When you restrict what you listen to and prefer only sweet speech, all that you hear becomes Saama gaana. When you do only sweet deeds, all that you do is Yajur homa (sacrificial ritual). Thus, you will be performing every day the Vedhapurusha Yajna, the yajna which propitiates the Supreme Vedic Being. - Sri Sathya Sai Baba

Sai Naad Varshini, Offering by Music College…

Monday, October 22nd, 2012 Today, in the fifth evening of Prasanthi Vidwan Mahasabha, students from Sri Sathya Sai Music College offered a Musical Offering entitled 'Sai Naad Varshini', at the Sanctum Sanctorum here in Prasanthi Nilayam. The half-an-hour offering was composed of vocals and instrumentals played with precision by the talented bunch of students and faculties.     Earlier, the fifth session commenced with special invocation by the students from the Muddenahalli campus of SSSIHL.     First speaker for the session was Dr Subhash Subramaniam, Asst. Professor, Dept. Of Management Studies, SSSIHL, Prasanthi Nilayam. Speaking with reference to the ongoing twin Yajna, Veda Purusha Saptaaha Jnaana Yajna and the Grama Seva Yajna, both of which were ordained by Bhagawan specifically, Subhash spoke of the third Yajna that happens every moment, all the time. Elucidating further on the theme in detail, he spoke of the three essential requisites to carry on successfully with this ongoing Yajna. The conditions are: to live in the present, being in acceptance and discovering one's true nature. Talented with musical prowess, Dr. Subhash intertwined his scholarly speech with beautiful songs, couplets and anecdotes.     The Guest Speaker for the evening was Dr Medasani Mohan, an illustrious name in the Telugu and Sanskrit literature. Dr. Mohan enthralled the audience with his rhetoric excellence speaking on 'Soundharya Lahiri' , epochal scholarly piece authored by Adi Shankara.     Today, being Ayudha Puja, a special function was held in the Mandir worshipping 'Sai Vahan', various vehicles that had been blessed by His touch including the Golden Chariot. Even as students chanted Vedam followed by Bhajans, Senior Trust officials and Secretary of SSSCT, along with other senior devotees broke coconuts at every blessed vehicle worshipping each one of them.     Today on the 7th day of the Sri Sathya Sai Grama Seva-2012, the following villages of the Puttaparthi madal were served: Yenumulapalli, Brahmanapalli, Brahmanapalli Tanda, Beedupalli, Badenaik Tanda, Gonenaik Tanda, Kappalabanda, Jagarajupalli, Venkatagaripalli, Kasi colony, Bathalappali, Paipalli, Rayalavandlapalli.

Date: Tuesday, October 23, 2012 THOUGHT FOR THE DAY Your heart is the ceremonial altar; your body is the fire place; your hair is the holy grass, darbha; wishes are the fuel-sticks with which the fire is fed; desire is the ghee (clarified butter) that is poured into the fire to make it burst into flame; anger is the sacrificial animal; the fire is the tapas (penance) you accomplish.

Thus, you will be performing every day the Vedhapurusha Yajna, the yajna which propitiates the Supreme Vedic Being. - Sri Sathya Sai Baba   Date: Monday, October 22, 2012 Yesterday's thought The term Yajna means 'any activity dedicated to the glory of God'. Such activity can be done in all climes, in all realms, and by all races. The key to success is 'Dedication'. Without it, there will inevitably arise anxiety, fear and faction. Every activity in the world is directed unto God, whether you know it or not. If God is not the inspirer and motivator, how can the Universe be moving in harmony, wheeling so smoothly, without chaos and anarchy? Those who are aware of this fact and accept it, experience thrill and joy in witnessing it! Anyone who lives in the constant presence of God and does all acts dedicated to God is continuously engaged in Yajna - Sri Sathya Sai Baba
