108 Quotations on Faith in God
From
Sri Sathya Sai Baba's Divine Discourses
–
17 –
Understand
the truth that in the myriad forms of life, human life is the most
sacred. Lead your life in a way so as to uphold Dharma,
not merely to eat and sleep like birds and animals. Birds and
animals act according to their innate nature, but man is
forgetting his responsibility of fostering righteousness. Modern
youth are under the mistaken notion that education is the means
for obtaining Udyoga (job). Udyoga without Yoga
is futile. Contemplation on God is true Yoga and
Udyoga. That is the primary duty of man. Without
understanding this truth, some people take pride in their jobs.
Ahamkara (ego) is the pest, which attacks the root of the
tree of human life. Raaga (attachment) and Dwesha
(hatred) foster Ahamkara. The three together spell doom
for human life. Man's life will shine forth brilliantly only when
his mind is filled with divine love. The life of one who forgets
God and gets immersed in selfish love is heading towards disaster.
The one who has total faith in God and love for God will lead a
life of joy and bliss. Therefore, man should make an effort to
understand his innate divine power, which is truly immeasurable.
