108 Quotations on Faith in God
From
Sri Sathya Sai Baba's Divine Discourses
–

Man
does not use his sense organs in the right way. He has eyes, but
does not see what is good. He has ears, but does not listen to
what is good. There is only one way of correcting him. He has to
be shown the spiritual path and helped to cultivate the virtues of
Truth, Love and Self-sacrifice. He must be weaned away from
selfish pursuits and from arrogance and pride. His mind, which is
the real culprit, has to be cleansed of all evil. He believes in
the false and unreal and does not relish Truth, Goodness and
Beauty. He can acquire real peace and joy only when he turns his
thoughts to God and away from the petty tinsel of the world.
Without faith in God there is nothing that man can achieve,
whatever his knowledge and wealth may be.

Sathya Sai Baba
