Sathya Sai Baba

In the beginning you can think, The world is like a stage. I am only an actor. God is the director. All are His instruments, all are just ac­tors. He is directing everything. But do not always remain at that level. Move on. Think, I am the un­changing Atma, not this changing personality and body.

Were it not for the mind change of Sai devotees the world would already have fallen into complete chaos.

That the world is not in total destruction is due to the change of mind of Sai devotees and to Sai's grace.

Sathya Sai Baba

Living becomes a glorious experience only when it is sweetened by tolerance and love. Willingness to compromise with others ways of living and cooperation in common tasks, these make living happy and fruitful. Certain modes of behaviour have been laid down and proved beneficial by centuries of practice.
Sathya Sai Baba

When you feel you cannot do good, at least desist from doing evil.
Sathya Sai Baba

All service should be regarded as an offering to God, and every opportunity to serve should be welcomed as a gift from God. When service is done in this spirit, it will lead to self- realization.
Sathya Sai Baba
