108 Quotations on Faith in God
From
Sri Sathya Sai Baba's Divine Discourses
–
39 –
If
you engage yourselves in right action, you will not be bound by
the consequences of karma. Because of past karma,
you have got the present life. By your present karma you
can ensure freedom from birth. Through love, you develop faith;
through faith and earnestness, you acquire knowledge; through
knowledge, you develop sadhana, and through sadhana,
you achieve the goal. So, for practising sadhana, you
require wisdom, and for acquiring wisdom, you require Sraddha
(earnestness and faith) and for Sraddha you must
cultivate love. So love is the means and for this you must acquire
control of the senses. If gradually you reduce your desires, you
will be able to bring the senses under control.
