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

Bhaarath
has been built on the foundation of Dharma
(righteousness), laid down by sages like Naarada and Vaalmeeki,
teaching the people that one should not enthuse over victory or
droop over defeat, that both are to be welcomed as tests of one's
faith in God. This is a land where faith in God is imbibed at the
mother's breast by every child since millennia, and, so, it will
never give way to despair and grief. It will rely on the Lord
within and discover inexhaustible reinforcements of courage within
each heart. The final victory is for those who have faith in the
invincible Aathman, Reality. Such men will have no hate
in their hearts; they will only be sad that others are greedy and
envious and their prayers will be for the granting of wisdom,
humility and love to their opponents: "O God, grant them
sad-buddhi, discrimination, the power of cool, calm
judgement."
