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

Service
to God has been described as Bhakti. The heart of the
devotee flows with love of the Lord through constant remembrance
and recitation of His name. Out of this stream of love, devotion
emerges. One who is nourished by the nectar of Bhakti
will have no desire for anything else. To be unaffected by joy or
sorrow, gain or loss, praise or blame, to remain steadfast and
unwavering in faith, is the hall-mark of true devotion. Affection,
attachment, desire are natural qualities in man. When these
qualities are directed towards God and when one is continuously
engaged in good deeds, these qualities acquire purity and
sacredness. Then a man becomes not only a great soul but can
become divine.
