Joy is Like an Eye-Pleasing Rainbow
When it rains and the moment sun appears behind the clouds, a colorful picture resembling a bow appears on the canvas of the sky. We call it rainbow which has the seven shades of color arranged in an eye-pleasing order. Earlier people presumed that the rainbow was the bow of Lord Indra, the Rain God. The seven colors are cast when a ray of sun gets distracted while passing through a spectrum of a rain-droplet. The sight of bow-shaped rainbow is a feast to the eyes. It animates, enthuses and delights and our mind over-flows with joy. The rainbow does not linger longer on the horizon.Similar to that glowing picture of seven colors of a rain-bow, even our earthly pleasures vanish away soon. Human life is a garland of problems. Now and then we get elated when our little wishes get fulfilled. 'The drama of life on the earth is a brief interlude between birth and death'. Philosophers say 'A dream would vanish in the blink of an eye'. As a result of acts committed in previous births, the soul hovers over different bodies. But, they are not permanent. The drop-lets of water get evaporated, condense to a rain-cloud and again drop down on the earth in a shower of rain. The human soul resembles a drop of water. So, we should realize that momentary pleasures do not last longer. Only Sai's Feet provides us ever-new delight.
Shri Hari will be pleased if you give water to the thirsty, bread to the hungry and clothes to the naked.
Guru a word, a four-lettered word, has the phenomenal potential of taking you beyond, beyond not the pains and miseries of life but beyond yourself. In other words, beyond what you know yourself as, opening the doors to the higher worlds and taking you through experiences which turn you from a normal being to a super being. So let us go beyond these four letters, into the energy of these four letters, to fathom this phenomenal force.
Message from the teachings of Shirdi Sai for 28th August
Baba, the Most Merciful One, is within our reach
God is not somewhere beyond our reach. He dwells within us in the form of wisdom and bliss. If we pray to Him whole-heartedly, He would not only reveal Himself to us in the eye of our mind but would suitably advise us. Unfortunately, we neither attempt to see Him nor try to listen to His words of Divine Wisdom. The television and radio have always been broadcasting several programmes. We must have the instrument that can receive their signals. It should be in a working condition. We must have the interest to see and listen to the programme. Only when we have the T.V or radio set, we can see or listen to the programs. The same is the case with God. Baba is the energy of an ever-flowing stream of nectar of love. Our heart must be willing to listen to His words and eager to see Him. Faith in Baba is very crucial. We must get ready to install His Divine Image in our hearts. Thus, we need to restrain the sense organs, awaken the power of soul by the fire of fervent devotion. Then, our soul can see through our eyes and hear through our ears, the Divine Spirit. Thus, we have to get our mind and soul attuned to receive the Divine Power transmitted to us. For this, we should have an ardent devotion, persistent practice and deep desire to see God. Let us tune in our mental radio to listen to Baba's Love message eternally broadcasted.

Every Blossom Cannot Bear a Fruit
We sense pain for every small ailment. We shed tears if our beloved ones fall sick. We prostrate before God and seek His protection. When God listens to our prayer, removes all sufferings and wipes out our tears, our heart leaps in joy. Again, the cycle of troubles, tears, prayers and making vows to God starts. Yet, we do not become wise. We always crave for ephemeral pleasures instead of longing for perennial happiness in life offered by Baba. Many devotees came to Baba imploring Him to bless them with jobs, children or material prosperity. Very few came to serve Him and got self-enlightened. On one occasion, a disciple, on seeing a large crowd assembled at Dwarakamayi, questioned, 'Baba! Will they all be blessed and liberated'? Baba smiled, pointing to a mango tree full of blossoms and questioned him back, "will all the blossoms turn into fruit"? Some blossoms would drop, some as tender fruit and only a very few get ripened into fruits. Just as many foolish ones go to the Magic Mountain Meru, the Wish-Fulfilling Tree, which can grant any wish but ask it for a nose-stud, so also many people go to Baba and seek His blessings only to get their petty worldly desires fulfilled. If we truly surrender to Baba and pray to Him with a devout heart, He washes our sins and tears and hugs us to His heart in deep delight.

He who remains more in Silence leads a healthier life
Humility and forgiveness are the hallmarks of a Saint.
Sowing the Seeds of Devotion in Human Hearts
To cultivate something, attempt and effort are very essential. To develop either righteousness in a heart or to grow a plant, we need to put efforts. First, the seed of devotion must be sown in the hearts of men and women. For germination of the seed, we need to remember God, the Sun of Wisdom. The ambrosial waters of Baba's love-messages must be sprinkled on the soil of the heart. It would be enough if the seed of faith sprouts. Great light would dawn into one's life. We wish that everyone develops faith in God by deepening one's devotion. But we neither by grace cultivate in them faith in God nor can we make them turn to Baba and get blessed by His Grace. We may sow a seed and water it, but though it sprouts and puts up leaves and grows, it all depends on the Will of Baba. Yet, we need to make an effort.We are experiencing great delight because of our devotion to Baba. Blessed by His love, we are able to live in peace and joy. Therefore, we need to pray that even others too should live happily in Baba's Shade. In the process, we should attempt to sow the seeds of devotion in the hearts of upright people. We often talk about Baba to several people. Yet, all might not choose the path of devotion. At least, if some people savour the bliss of God, our efforts are fruitful. Our duty is to put an effort and it will be their good fortune to reap the fruits. It's Baba's Will again.
Be assured that the devotion of Baba is result- orientated
When you meditate keep your focus on one point. Why roam? Stick quietly to one place.
Wisdom in Sayings, Proverbs, Messages
'Sayings' refer to a word. It is a medium through which we express our feelings to others. A person's reputation gets enhanced by the power of good words spoken. Word has power to develop or destroy self-confidence of a person. At times, words work like good medicine. Words heal sick minds and bodies. Words that teach good and show good are called a 'proverb'. Some great souls with their mellowed spiritual wisdom have gifted the humanity with gems of truth through words and books. This is the priceless treasure of wisdom entrusted to us. Baba always taught "although you may not do charity always, but do not scold or drive away those who seek your alms or beg". It is not mere proverb. It is a leading light in our hand that guides our lives. We would say a good word for the benefit of someone. A word thus spoken for the good of others must be beneficial. We should abide by it. Words that warn us to mend our behaviour might appear bitter. Still, they should be implemented. We know how much Damu Anna gained by following Baba's advice by not investing in a trade. When we are in a dilemma whether to do a work or not, Baba guides us in one form or the other. We should immediately obey and get benefited and saved. We should, therefore, cultivate the habit of talking less but in a smoother, sweeter, polished manner.
He who is protected by God , can be harmed by none.
Saburi [Patience] is manliness in man. It removes all sins and afflictions.
