10th National Conference

Sathya Sai Sadhana Camp - 13th & 14th Sept. 08

 

Your Life is my Message – Love in Action

 

Adhere to God! It is up to you to bring Him into your life at every moment of the day. God is love, and that is the easiest way to find Him, through love. If you keep your heart open and let love flow, God's love will fill you with divine energy and help you along the path, guiding you to overcome all obstacles. It is a long journey, but it becomes shorter and easier once you share it with the Lord. He knows the path, and will guide you all the way to the very end, to ultimate liberation.  So until this wisdom enlightens us, we need Sadhana; until we experience the one Unified Divine, we have to accept and practice discipline, regulations and Sadhana.

 –Sathya Sai Baba.
