Today,
your mind flies about anywhere and squats on all sundry objects in the
Universe. Like the fly that sits on fair and foul, your mind too
flees from one thought to another. The fly will be destroyed if it sits
on fire. So too, your mind will be destroyed when it dwells on God.
Know that your mind is but a pattern of desires, woven with the warp
and woof of the same material. When Rama (God) enters your mind, kama (desire) flees away. This state is called the death of the mind (Mano-naashana) or the merging of your mind (Mano-laya).
Each one of you must make your own heart an abode of peace (Prashanthi
Nilayam). Analyse your words, deeds and thoughts. Get rid, slowly but
surely, of the evil ones that harm you and others. Cultivate fortitude,
firm peace and speak only the truth. Let this transformation begin,
this very moment
in you!
Bagavan Sri Sri Sri Sathya Sai Baba
