Human nature expects to see at least a shadow
Of His rewards, When putting effort in His spiritual practices. These expectations Slow down your progress of change, And may even disgust you in wanting to change. At times you may feel cheated of God. At other times, there may be anger and frustration. You may plunge into comparison With another's progress, And experience envy or jealousy Of My attention to another. Each one's spiritual experience will be different, And the attention I give you, Is the only kind of attention you need. Believe Me, you and you only will earn the rewards, When spiritual change within you begins to occur. So wait! Be patient! Do not stress on your time spent to change. Focus intead, On attaining perfection in your efforts. You are not alone in your struggle of change. Your ability to change to Me is My victory. Your faith and patience to change, Is your response to My love. You are not alone in this dream of reality. Yes! It is possible! If not today, not tomorrow - one day! The change will come! The change will occur! Your reality will reveal! Live, not to dream, but to live the dream, To change from you to Me - with Me. From: Sai Darshan by Seema Dewan When you are enslaved by your passions, how can you stand forth and claim respect? Only cowards yield to their senses and passions. Brave men face up to them and win. The hero is he who overrules his mind and curbs his impulses; the zero is he who is overruled by them. Stand fast like a rock when the waves beat.
