Forgive those who have harmed you and criticised you. Have faith that whatever happens is for your own good. If someone hurls abuses at you, do not retaliate. Enquire within yourself whether he has criticised the body or the atma. If he has criticised the body, indirectly he has done a favour to you because the body is nothing but a heap of flesh, blood, bones and faecal matter. On the other hand, if he has criticised the atma, it amounts to criticising his own self because the same atma exists in both of you. One should cultivate this kind of forgiveness and broad-mindedness. Embodiments of Love! The Guru dispels the darkness of ignorance arising out of body attachment. The body is but an instrument. God has given you the body to take to the path of action. It is God’s gift. Deho Devalaya Prokto Jeevo Deva Sanatana (body is the temple and the indweller is God). Consider all bodies as temples of God and offer your salutations. Sarva Jeeva Namaskaram Kesavam Pratigachchhati and likewise Sarva Jeeva Tiraskaram Kesavam Pratigachchhati (whomsoever you salute, it reaches God and whomsoever you censure, it also reaches God).
Bagavan Sri Sri Sri Sathya Sai Baba
