How should devotion and surrender be expressed so as to earn God’s grace? Bhagawan directs us lovingly today.
The means of getting Divine grace are: Bhakti (devotion), Prapathi (surrender), Niyama (ethical discipline), Vicharana (enquiry) and Deeksha (determination). When you succeed in these tests, you will experience the grace of the Divine. Devotion should manifest itself in every action. Everything d...one out of love for God and as an offering to God becomes devotion. The devotee is filled with love and shares the love with all the others. The nine different forms of worship are only means to cultivate devotion. But the goal of all of them is to experience oneness with the Divine. Prapathi means total surrender - offering everything to the Divine. The sense of ego separates the individual from the Divine. When the individual offers everything to God, the barrier of ego is removed. Of all diseases to which man is prone, the disease arising from ahamkara (ego) is the most deadly. The only panacea for this disease is surrender to the Will of the Divine.

Nilayam, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 30, 2015
What is the path tread by noble women? Bhagawan lovingly explains to us today.
Heaping respect and honour upon a person who does not follow Atmic dharma (righteousness driven by the Self) is like heaping decorations on a body that has no life in it. The soul that left the body cannot enjoy the respect shown to the corpse. So too is the case with the person who is unaware of the Reality and the purpose of... life but is crowned with fame and glory. A modest woman will not care for such meaningless trash and tinsel. This characteristic is what confers on her the title ‘The Lakshmi of the home’. The woman is the prop of the home as well as of the practice of religion. She plants and fosters religious faith. Women have natural aptitude for faith and spiritual endeavour. Women with devotion, faith, and humility often lead men on the Godward path and the practice of holy virtues.
- Dharma Vahini, Ch 4.
The welfare of women is an index of the welfare of the Nations. -BABA.

What are the obstacles in our lives that we must overcome and how? Bhagawan clearly explains to us today.
Have high aims in life. Set before yourselves the examples of great men and women who have figured in the history of our country and the world. Take a lesson from their life of sacrifice and heroism. You need determination to face the challenges of life which is filled with ups and downs, successes... and failures, and joys and sorrows. These challenges have to be faced with faith in God. The mind should not be allowed to waver and hop from one thing to the other. A steady mind is the mark of a truly educated person. Life should be governed by definite regulations. Self-control is essential for leading a righteous life. Our culture has always laid stress on the well-being of all. You should not be overwhelmed by difficulties that you may encounter in life. They are all transient; they come and go. The source of enduring bliss is within you. Do not give way to weakness of will.
- Divine Discourse, 21-Jan-1988.
Reining in your senses is the growing in wisdom. - BABA

Prayers are welcome and eagerly sought
for the same... Special thanks to
Ajish Mohan for the beautiful cover... The blurb behind the
book is given here.
"Calling Sri Sathya Sai Baba a philanthropist and social reformer would be akin to calling Lord Jesus a shepherd and Bhagawan Krishna a cowherd!
One definitely cannot turn a blind eye to His magnificent work - tertiary healthcare systems, water projects, housing projects, an educational university and other service projects in over 150 countries which are first-of-a-kind in world history. However He is much more than what we understand of Him through the service projects! As He Himself declares, His greatest work is the transformation of the heart which is effected through pure, selfless love.
This is a book that attempts to capture a sample of this greatest work of Baba.
The book details the life experiences of eighteen different students and teachers of Swami’s 'KG to PG' (kindergarten to post-graduation) educational system. The incidents range from the simple and sweet to the sagacious and sublime. By providing a peek into the lives which the Master considered as “His property”, these narratives are sure to capture the heart and enrapture the mind. Though just a sample, they give us a glimpse into what Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba stands for and what He exhorts. What becomes amply clear is that it is never too early or too late to embark on the greatest quest of life."

Most people have had wonderful opportunity to be with the ‘Divine.’ What did Bhagawan want us to gain from those fleeting moments? Bhagawan lovingly reminds us today.
You have had the valuable opportunity to listen to Divine discourses and directions, they have been printed upon your hearts; many of your conversations is centered on Me or on My divine play (leelas) and glory (mahima). My advice to you is...: Apply this adoration in your life. Let your companions see how disciplined you are, how sincerely you obey your parents, and how deeply you revere your teachers. Be a light, radiating virtue and self-control wherever you live, just as commendably as you did when in My divine presence. Do not slide back into indiscipline, bad manners, irresponsibility and evil habits. Do not complain against food; eat with pleasure whatever you get. Do not protest against any errand that your parents may assign you. Run gladly and fulfil it. When they want you to nurse them, do it happily, intelligently, and feeling glad that you got the chance. Live anywhere but such that I can pour My Grace on you, more and more.
- Divine Discourse, 22-Feb-1968.
I am with you, in you, above you, behind you, guarding, guiding and protecting you. I know all your thoughts, words and deeds. -BABA.

In the present times, immodesty is very prevalent. How should a woman conduct oneself, especially when confused or troubled by peer groups? Bhagawan explains to us today.
Some might question, “Women who have swallowed all the compunctions of modesty are being honoured today! They strut about with heads erect, and the world honours them not a whit less. How is that so, if modesty is all important?” I hav...e no need to acquaint Myself with these activities of the present-day world. I do not concern Myself with them. They may receive honour and respect of a sort, but the respect is not authorized or deserved. When honour is offered to the undeserving, it is tantamount to insult; to accept it when offered is to demean the very gift. It is not honour but flattery that is cast on the immodest by the selfish and the greedy. A modest woman will never crave honour or praise. Her attention will always be on the limits that she should not transgress. Honour and praise come to her unasked and unnoticed. The honey in the flower or lotus does not crave for bees; so too is the relationship with a cultured woman who knows her limits and the respect she evokes and deserves.
- Dharma Vahini, Ch 4.
Be clear and content. Be moderate and wise. Be vigilant and steady. Be earnest and sweet.-BABA.

How must we conduct ourself if we wish to be happy and peaceful? Bhagawan lovingly explains to us in crystal clear terms today.
These days virtue is becoming rare at all levels - in the individual, family, society and community, and also in all fields of life - economic, political and even 'spiritual’. Life must be spent in accumulating and safeguarding virtue, not riches. Listen and ruminate over the stories of the great moral heroes of the past, so that their ideals may be imprinted on your hearts. There is also a decline in discipline, which is the soil on which virtue grows. Each one must be respected, whatever be their status, economic condition or spiritual development; else there will be no peace and happiness in life. This respect can be aroused only by the conviction that the same Real Self (Atma) that is in you is playing the role of the other person. See that Divinity (Atma) in others; feel that they too have hunger, thirst, yearning and desires as you have, develop sympathy and the anxiety to serve and be useful to everyone.
- Divine Discourse 22 Feb 1968.
Cultivate not riches, comforts and luxuries but divine virtues. -BABA

What is the most precious jewel for any woman and why? Bhagawan firmly reinforces today.
Modesty is essential for woman. Overstepping the limits of modesty is against her innate dharma; crossing its limits brings about many calamities, including destroying the very glory of womanhood. Without modesty, woman is devoid of beauty and culture. Absence of modesty makes the life of a woman, however rich in othe...r accomplishments, a vacuum. Modesty lifts her to the heights of sublime holiness. Modesty is a blend of these qualities - humility, purity of thought and manners, meekness, surrender to high ideals, sensitivity and sweetness of temper. It is the most invaluable of all jewels for women. Through her innate sense of propriety, a modest woman will ever keep within limits. She becomes automatically aware which behaviour is proper and which is not. Modesty is the true test of a woman’s grandeur. A modest woman will stick only to virtuous deeds and behavior, and will wield authority in the home and outside, in the community as well as in the world.
- Dharma Vahini, Ch 4.
Modesty is the most precious and priceless jewel for any woman. -BABA

What is the minimum qualification for receiving the Grace of the Lord? Bhagawan explains and gives us a few tips we can follow.
Just as you prescribe minimum qualifications for every profession, the minimum qualification for grace is surrender of egoism, control over senses and regulated food and recreation (ahara and vihara). A person is made or marred by the company kept. A bad person who falls into ...good company is able to shed their evil quickly and shine forth in virtue. A good person falling into evil company is overcome by the subtle influence and slides down into evil. The lesser is overpowered by the greater. A drop of sour curd transforms milk, curdling it, separating the butter and turning it into whey. Sacred books are also equally valuable for this transmuting process, but they have to be read and pondered upon, and their lessons have to be put into daily practice. The Gayatri Mantra is a Vedic prayer to the Supreme Intelligence that is immanent in the Universe to kindle the intelligence of the supplicant.

What is the most significant malnutrition we must eradicate Bhagawan directs us lovingly today.
When the mind of a person is unattached to the ups and downs of life, but is able to maintain equanimity under all circumstances, then even physical health can be assured. The mental firmament must be like the sky, which bears no mark of the passage through it of birds or planes or clouds. Illness is caused mor...e by malnutrition of the mind than of the body. Doctors speak of vitamin deficiency; I will call it the deficiency of Vitamin G, and I will recommend the repetition of the Name of God, with accompanying contemplation of the glory and grace of God. This Vitamin G is the medicine that is needed. Regulated life and habits are two-thirds of the treatment, while the medicine is just one-third. You must reveal the divine qualities of love, humility, detachment and contentment. Else, you could become worse than a beast and in fact more deadly.
- Divine Discourse, 27-Sep-1965.
To secure the grace of God one must adhere to right conduct and observe purity in thought, word and deed. - BABA

Today’s Sai Inspires from Prasanthi
Nilayam, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 22, 2015
What is the true significance of the festival of Vijayadashami? Bhagawan lovingly explains to us today.
Look at the trainers of wild beasts. They bring the tiger, the most ferocious of animals, like a cat into the circus ring and make it jump through a hoop of fire, lap milk from a plate or sit face to face with a goat on a chair! They tame it to become an unassuming toy! If a ferocious tiger can be sub...dued, can you not succeed with the ferocious denizens of your mind? You can! That is the message you must internalize when you celebrate the victory of the Primal Energy! On this day the Goddess of Energy (Parashakthi), immanent in the microcosm and macrocosm had destroyed all the evil forces (Asura). That same energy is present in you as the dormant spiritual energy (Kundalini Shakti), which when awakened, can destroy, the evil tendencies within your mind; So, by means of systematic Sadhana tap the inner resources that God has endowed you with and elevate yourselves to a purer and happier realm.
- Divine Discourse, Oct 4, 1967.
It is foolish to try to shape the world. Shape yourself as the embodiment of Peace, Love and Reverence. Then you will see all as Love, Compassion and Humility. - BABA.

What is the purpose of the Navarathri celebrations? Bhagawan clearly explains to us today.
Goddess Durga represents the power of Nature (Prakruthi-Shakti) and Goddess Lakshmi represents the thought power (Sankalpa-Shakti). Goddess Saraswati represents the power of speech (Vak-Shakti). It is to acquire these three powers that the various forms of worship are performed during the Navarathri festival. ...But prayers alone are not enough. Prayers issue from the lips, but they should emanate from the heart. The heart (hridaya) symbolises the Ocean of Milk (Ksheerasagara) from which emerges Mother Lakshmi. When Goddess Lakshmi emerges, purity of speech follows. Whatever you speak must conform to truth. Renunciation (Vairagya) is not abandonment of hearth and home, and retiring to a forest. It means developing divine thoughts and reducing worldly feelings. It is when this balanced development takes place that you acquire Prakruthi-Shakti (control over the power of Nature). When these powers are secured, your mental power, peace and bliss increases.
- Divine Discourse, 4 Oct 1992.
Of what use is to celebrate festivals, if you do not change your old ways of thinking and behaving? - BABA

Nilayam, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 20, 2015
Bhagawan declares that we all are essentially divine. What then is the difference between us and Him? On this auspicious Avatar Declaration Day, Bhagawan lucidly explains.
Oblivious to the presence of the sacred Divine within, people embark on their quest for God. Avatars (incarnations) are of two kinds: Amsaavatar and Purnaavatar. All human beings are Amsaavatar (partial incarnation of the Divine). Mamai...vaamso jeevaloke jeevabhutah sanatanah (In this world of living beings, it is a part of My Eternal Self that has become the Jiva, the individual soul), says Krishna in the Gita. These partial incarnations, caught up in Maya, develop egoism and possessiveness and lead worldly lives. However, the Purnaavatars (complete incarnations of the Divine), subduing and transcending Maya, manifest their full divinity to the world in their lives. The Purnaavatar may behave, according to the circumstances, as if subject to Maya, but in reality He is free from it at all times. But some, not understanding this truth owing to their own limitations, attribute wrong motives to His actions. In this they reflect their own feelings.

Why should we persist in holding on to noble practices, even though it is extremely difficult in the beginning? Bhagawan gives us valuable tips through memorable examples.
When people are asked to do spiritually salutary acts, initially no one has any inner urge. Still don’t give up in despair. Until the taste sprouts, strictly follow the disciplines. This taste is a result of training. No one has it from ...the very beginning, but constant practice will create the zest. The infant doesn’t know the taste of milk. By taking milk daily, it starts liking it; in fact the taste becomes so dear that when milk is to be given up to be substituted with rice, it starts to protest. But the mother doesn’t despair; she persuades the child to take small quantities of cooked rice daily, and over time the child starts liking rice and eventually gives up milk. Milk, its natural food, is now replaced with rice again in a natural way. Indeed now if no rice is available for one day, the child becomes miserable. Similarly with constant practice, the desire for worldly and sensual objects and matters, will wane and good company (Satsang) will prevail.
- Bhagavatha Vahini, Ch 1.
Just as fire is needed until rice is cooked, so also spiritual practices are needed until you realize your innate divinity.-BABA.

What should we do to transform our daily living into a sacrificial offering? Bhagawan clearly explains to us the method and the result.
Jnana Yajna is specially recommended by scriptures for all. Jnana does not simply mean knowledge gained from scholars and books, but actually conducting in accordance with that knowledge. Knowledge can never ripen into wisdom so long as the ego persists in craving for resu...lts to satisfy its desires. When ego fades away, knowledge shines as Wisdom. When yajnas are performed solely for the peace and prosperity of the world (Loka-Kalyan), they reach God. Jnana reveals that in every sacrifice, God is the Prompter, the Promoter, the Sacrificer, the Sacrifice, the Product achieved and the Recipient of the product. God is the consumer of every sacred offering (Yajnabhuk); He is guardian of the yajna (Yajna-bhrith) and its performer (Yajna krith). He is all; it is only when He is all that the act becomes a genuine yajna. If this attitude can soak into every activity, it will sanctify every moment of your life and make it a yajna.
- Divine Discourse, 2 Oct 1981.

Today’s Sai Inspires from Prasanthi
Nilayam, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 17, 2015
What is the purpose of following various forms of worship? Why is it necessary to follow prescribed procedures? Bhagawan lovingly explains to us in crystal clear terms today.
Normally people are drawn to sense objects, for they are victims of instincts. Instincts easily seek sense objects - they come along with the body and aren’t derived by any training. The infant seeks milk from the mother’s breast, a...nd the newborn calf naturally nestles at the udder. However for the infant to walk and talk, some training is necessary, because these actions are either socially prompted or learnt by example or picked up by imitation of others. Training is essential even for the proper pursuit of sense pleasure, for wild untrained search for such pleasure promotes anger, hatred, envy, malice and conceit. Hence to train the senses along salutary lines and to hold them under control, certain good disciplines like repeating Lord’s Name (japa), meditation (dhyana), fasts (upavasa), worship at dawn and dusk, etc. are essential. Though sense pleasures are ‘natural’ at first, by constant practice, training and listening to the wise, slowly the greater and everlasting bliss derived by divine adoration is grasped.
- Bhagavatha Vahini, Ch 1.
Exulting in praising the Lord is the real hallmark of the good. -BABA

DIVINE DASARA with
DIVINE MOTHER SAI
A Special facebook cover to Celebrate the Auspicious Navaratri festival 2015.
Since the 1940s, Navaratri has been an important festival at Puttaparthi. Over the years the festival has changed and evolved based on the settings, the times and the resources the devout could offer. The intention behind Bhagawan Baba encouraging all this was to exhort each one to sanctify one's body and mind through sacred activities, during this holy period wh...ich is highly conducive for spiritual progress. As of today, Navaratri in Puttaparthi is marked by three major events - the Veda Purusha Saptaha Jnana Yajna, the Prasanthi Vidwan Mahasabha and the Sri Sathya Sai Gramaseva. The yajna pertains to the act of upasana or worship, the Vidwan Mahasabha which is a series of scholarly talks, seeks to enlighten the intellect, and the Gramaseva is a means to use one's physical strengths and energies for the service of the needy. Thereby the celebrations encompass the spiritual triad of Bhakti, Jnana and Karma (devotion, wisdom and action). Bhagawan Baba ensured that, all these activities, though grand, were performed with the intention of selflessness, dedication and devotion. That is what makes the Dasara celebrations at Puttaparthi truly worth experiencing. You could check the programme
schedule for this year's DASARA CELEBRATION 2015 here:
Celebrate Navaratri with Mother
Sai’s immense blessings. May this sacred festival brings the choicest joy and prosperity in your life.
Thank you and loving Sai Ram, Radio Sai Team.
Sai Love will continue to live in our
hearts only when we learn to live by giving and give anything to
love Him, more and more.

Nilayam, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 16, 2015
What are the mandatory sacrificial offerings (yajnas) that every human being must undertake? Bhagawan lovingly reinforces to us today.
Five yajnas are prescribed as mandatory for every human being: (1) Activities devoted to the study of scriptures (Rishi Yajna); (2) Activities devoted to parents who confer your birth, foster and guide you (Pitr Yajna); (3) Acts done as reverential homage to God who endowed ...you with mind, intelligence, memory and consciousness, and who is inherent in your every cell as Rasa, the vital energy (Raso Vai Sah). Indeed, the right use of these instruments that God has given you is Deva Yajna; (4) The fourth is adoration of guests. Everyone must welcome the chance of entertaining a guest and treat them with affection, and please them with sincere hospitality as if sent by God, be it one's own kith and kin or strangers (Atithi Yajna); (5) The final yajna is unselfish acts done while dealing with trees, plants, animals, birds and pets like cats and dogs (Bhoota Yajna). Remember to make every act of yours from sunrise to the onset of sleep as a Yajna!
- Divine Discourse, 2 Oct 1981.
Acts by which you express your gratitude and affection, adoration and appreciation are really holy yajna. -BABA
