Man learns through experience, and the spiritual path is full of different kinds of experiences. He will encounter many difficulties and obstacles, and they are the very experiences he needs to encourage and complete the cleansing process.
Quotations
Sathya Sai Baba

Home and family is the basic social institution everywhere in the world. When the home improves, the whole world will be better.
Hear good things, see good, do good, think good, then you get the Grace of God, as all the evil tendencies will be uprooted.
Without God, life is like a school without a teacher. It is a wire with no current passing through it; it is a body with no soul.
Selfless service alone gives the needed strength and courage to awaken the real you sleeping in your heart.
As long as you have attachment to the body and attachment to objects, fear and suffering will be with you. Therefore Krishna told Arjuna to develop his discrimination and rid himself of body consciousness. Only then he would be able to develop integral vision.
