This world is filled,
With all kinds of life,
And you stand amongst it,
Surrounded by family, friends.
In the midst of this hustle and bustle,
Of your daily routine,
You feel the pangs of loneliness.
All around, you feel is “yours’’,
Yet nothing remains forever.
All that “comes” must “go’’.
Your life is affected by this, but only momentarily.
And then, it moves on, yet to find another change.
Think! What is this will within you,
That allows the wheels of life
To still move on smoothly?
What is the healing power,
That soothes you, comforts you back to life?
What is the reason of being motivated to live?
This is nothing, but the call of the Self,
That is within you, that emerges and pushes you,
To seek, attain and realize,
The unchangeable part of life-
God! He who lives within every human being.
God! He who surrounds
Every atom of this universe.
God! He who wills all pervading on this earth.
God! He who graces life to end in the body,
And merge with Him forever.
From: Sai Darshan by Seema Dewan
The doctor may direct one patient to drink curds but prohibit another from
consuming any. When a man is obese, he advises certain types of food. When he
is lean he advises others. While doctors who treat diseases of the body have
to prescribe different remedies, how much more specific and personal must be
the remedies for the complex and varied conditions of mental situations and
spiritual yearnings and aspirations?
Since each one of you is a pilgrim on the road proceeding at your own pace
according to your qualifications, the advice that applies to one may not be
appropriate for the other. When I tell one person to follow one spiritual
practice, it is specifically for his benefit. Do not take it as prescription
for your benefit also, saying, "Swami told him thus; let me also adopt it."
Each has a different make-up - physical, mental and spiritual.
Study Circle for Divinity, Woodward and Farmer, pg. 14
