When a
man falls into a well, of what use is it if he controls his
voice and his emotions and whispers quietly, "I have
fallen into this well.. I have fallen into this well... I
am in great danger... Please save me?” and so on. No
one will be able to hear or save him. He must shout
full-throated, with all the anguish he is experiencing and
with the extreme desire to be saved. Then he can hope to
get succour. Similarly, when you are caught in the coils of
this world, when you have fallen into this deep well of
worldly misery, shout with all your might and all your
heart, that you may be saved by God. There is no use
muttering faintly and half-heartedly, "Save me... I am
floundering in this samsaar (worldly life)."
When the prayer comes shrieking through the heart, help is
assured. Sing with intense yearning for God and enjoy the
experience of adoring Him.
Bagavan Sri Sri Sri Sathya Sai Baba
