All in this world are your very own,

Yet you choose to bind only with a few.

Your focus on your relationships

By birth, blood marriage,

Limit you to see all as your loved ones.

If these relationships you value today,

Would carry with you from one birth to another,

Then your binding would not be a hindrance.

But do they really?

All play their role, fulfill their duties,

And move to another world,

With other attachments.

You give your love to only a chosen few,

Because you develop attachments with them.

I call these attachments, because,

You have expectations of them.

On the other hand,

True love gives with no expectations of them.

And even if there is no acceptance,

Learn to love, not with any reason.

Love knows no relationships,

Love does not discriminate.

Love shines with the selflessness of sacrifice.

When there is love for all, you become content.

When all becomes love, you become peace.

When love becomes you, you become God !

From: Sai Darshan by Seema Dewan

 

The greatest disease is the absence of peace.  When the mind is at peace, the 
body also will have health.  Therefore, every person craving good health must 
pay close attention to the emotions, feelings and motives that animate him.  
Just as clothes are washed, the mind has to be washed again and again.  Else, 
dirt accumulates, and a habit is formed.  Then it is difficult for the washer 
man and harmful to the clothes.  It should be a daily process - you should see 
that there is no dirt settles on the mind.  To do this, you have to move about 
in such company where dirt is avoided.  Falsehood, injustice, indiscipline, 
cruelty, hate - these form the dirt.   Truth, righteousness, peace and love - 
these are the cleansers.  If you inhale the pure air of the latter, your mind 
will be free from evil bacilli and you will be mentally sturdy and physically 
strong.
