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
Hear good things, see good, do good, think good, then you get the Grace of God, as all the evil tendencies will be uprooted.
Now you worship His Form, you repeat His name; ignoring His orders. Without practicing the discipline laid down by Rama to purify the mind, all else is mere show, empty rituals.
You have come from God, you are a spark of His Glory, you are a wave of that Ocean of Bliss; you will get peace only when you again merge in Him.
I have come to light the lamp of love in your hearts, to see that it shines day by day with added lustre.
When the road ends, and the goal is gained, the pilgrim finds that he has travelled only from himself to himself.
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.
Familiarity with books is not knowledge. One’s entire life is a continuous process of learning.
One’s entire life is a continuous process of learning. Any process of inquiry is related to learning. But basically our inquiry should be concerned with finding out what is transient and what is permanent. This is true knowledge.
