You need not learn all the shlokas
(verses) and the commentaries of the scriptures by heart or engage in
contest with other scholars and exhibit your scholarship. It is enough
even if you put one verse that suits your spiritual stage and appeals
to you the most, into practice. The first step will itself take you
nearer to the second step and the second will make the third step
easier, and so on until the end. Of what avail is medicine, if it is
poured into the ear? It has to be taken in, so that it might act and
strengthen the blood stream and restore health. Similarly, there is no
use in listening to spiritual discourses for hours. Take the lesson
in. Take it to heart and put it into practice. Apply it in daily life.
Realize the Divinity in you, that is the lesson.
Bagavan Sri Sri Sri Sathya Sai Baba
