Letter "S" » Sri Sathya Sai Baba Quotes
«Mind prompts man to seek happiness and avoid misery.»
«Love is life for man and love is everything in this world.»
Author: Sri Sathya Sai Baba
(Spiritual leader)
«It is love that shines brilliantly in every individual. But man, not being able to comprehend the significance of love attributes physical relationship to it. The love of a mother towards her child is affection.»
«The love that exists between wife and husband is infatuation. The love that exists among friends and relations is attachment. The love towards material objects is desire. Love in totality, directed towards God is known as devotion.»
«Understand that society is the source of whatever pleasure one derives and whatever wealth one achieves in life.»
«We owe everything to society and should be grateful to society for all that we receive from it. We have to repay this debt by helping at least as many people as we can.»
«Love all and serve all. Your entire life will be sanctified thereby.»
Author: Sri Sathya Sai Baba
(Spiritual leader)
«Be of service to others, for that is giving yourself to Me. For whatever you give, I will repay you thrice, Nay I shall repay you ten-fold. Try Me and you will see.»
«Baba tells us that when we serve another, we should remind ourselves that we are serving the Divinity within that other. This is something that we frequently forget, for it needs a very big mental re-adjustment. Don't worry about it -- just serve! But the very least that is demanded of us in this context is to RESPECT the person we are serving. That includes respecting their beliefs; in fact, it means reaching their spiritual Self through their beliefs, not ours. It means putting oneself in their shoes; cheering them up if possible, but seeing things from their point of view.»

«Service has been defined as Love made manifest . Baba repeatedly asks us to expand our hearts to include all humanity. He tells us that to care only for our own interests and those of our families is a constriction of our heart. Such constriction eventually results in loneliness and unhappiness -- as indeed we can see all around us, for it is the malady of the present age.»
