Sathya Sai Baba's birth anniversary in Puttaparthi today
Highlights
As we celebrate the grand 90th Birthday of Bhagawan, what is it that we must do to utilise completely this blessing of knowing Him. Bhagawan lovingly guides us today.
Devotees of Bhagwan Shri Sathya Sai Baba are thronging his ashram in Puttaparthi of Andhra Pradesh to pay their obeisance to mark his 90th birth anniversary. While bhajans, chanting of veda mantras and free distributuion of clothes and food for the needy are a few of the activities being planned by the Sathya Sai Trust, Baba's words reverberate through the ashram.
Here's a thought for the day displayed on the notice board in Puttaparthu today.
As we celebrate the grand 90th Birthday of Bhagawan, what is it that we must do to utilise completely this blessing of knowing Him. Bhagawan lovingly guides us today.
It serves no purpose if you merely acknowledge that the Lord has come but do not yearn to benefit by the Advent. Offer your entire self, your entire life, to Him; then your adoration will transform and transmute you so fast and so completely that you will merge into Him.
He thinks, He feels and acts as you do; you think, feel and act as He does. You will be transformed as a rock is transformed by the sculptor into an idol, deserving the worship of generations of sincere men and women. In the process you will have to bear many a hammer stroke and chisel-wound, for He is the sculptor. He is but releasing you from petrification! So today, offer your heart to the Lord, and gladly let Him transform you.
Practice the three disciplines of silence, cleanliness and forbearance. In silence you can hear the voice of God. Through cleanliness you earn purity. By forbearance, you cultivate love.
