Sai inspiriše – 11.02.2009. godine
The ladder must be as tall as the height to which you want to climb, is it not? So too, your spiritual practice to curb the mind must be carried on step by step, until Realization is gained. The rice in the pot must be well boiled and become soft and sweet. Until then, the fire must burn. In the vessel of 'body', with the water, that is to say the 'senses', boil the mind and make it soft. The fire is Saadhana (Spiritual practice). Keep it burning bright, this life will become Divine.
- Božanski govor, 17.05.1965.
Ljestve trebaju biti onoliko visoke kolika je visina na koju se želite popeti, zar ne? Isto tako, vaša duhovna praksa obuzdavanja uma treba se izvesti korak po korak, dok se ne ostvari spoznaja. Riža u loncu treba biti dobro skuhana kako bi postala mekana i slatka. Sve do tada vatra treba goriti. U posudi ‘tijela’, sa vodom, to jest ‘čulima’, skuhajte um i neka omekša. Vatra je duhovna praksa (sadhana). Neka jasno gori i vaš život će postati Božanski.
There is no austerity in this world higher than fortitude.
Ne postoji veći asketizam na ovom svijetu od moralne čvrstine. - Baba
