The
scriptures point out the means of securing everlasting joy, but people
are drawn to earn shadowy joys and fleeting pleasures that are fraught
with evil and harm. They are trying to draw water with a pot full of
holes. The senses leak out the joy they draw. The senses are wild
untutored servants who dictate terms to their master – the mind. The
mind has to be brought under your grip. Then the servants will fawn at
your feet. The mind is the monarch; the senses are the soldiers; the
soldiers are now ruling the king, because he lends his ears to them and
not the intellect, who is the Prime Minister. Let your intellect take
charge. The light of the Sun (your Soul) is obstructed by the thick
clouds of desire for sense objects and objective pleasure. Let the
strong wind of repentance and resolution scatter these clouds, so that
the Aatma may
shine forth brilliantly.
Bagavan Sri Sri Sri Sathya Sai Baba
