The sparks that leap out of the flame of fire go into the distance and soon become ash or dark dust. Of course, everyone is fundamentally Atma, but, moving away from the awareness of that Reality, one reduces oneself into ash or dark dust. When your thoughts revolve around your desire to attain Prashanti (Supreme Peace), when your deeds are directed by the regimen laid down for attaining it, when your words are soft, sweet and soaked in Love, you can, without fail, enjoy the warmth of this Fire. Often, when you watch the range of hills around Prasanthi Nilayam, you can see, especially in summer, streaks of light creeping fast over the top. This is due to vegetation catching fire. You can see light from afar, but you cannot bask in the warmth. So too, you only see Sai Baba; you do not derive the grace He is ready to grant. The reason is - You do not dedicate all your thoughts, words and deeds to Swami!
Bagavan Sri Sri Sri Sathya Sai Baba
