When
young men and women go out to countries overseas, their aged parents
are worried about their reactions to the attractions of the strange
culture. The father or mother write to their children, pleading with
them not to give up the family habits of worship, prayer, food and
drink. The children may have tears in their eyes with fond remembrance
of their parents, but that is all. They then yield to the temptations
and slide away. The spirit with which the letter is written is not
honoured in action. So too, many worship the sacred books that have
noble thoughts present in them. They shower flowers and offer prayers,
but when it comes to practising even a bit of what is written in them,
it seems an impossible task for most! You must live in love, and
practice it, every single day without fail.
Bagavan Sri Sri Sathya Sai Baba
