Sai Inspires from Prasanthi Nilayam October 17, 2015

What is the purpose of following various forms of worship? Why is it necessary

to follow prescribed procedures? Bhagawan lovingly explains to us in crystal
clear terms today.

Normally people are drawn to sense objects, for they are

victims of instincts. Instincts easily seek sense objects they come along with the body and arent derived by any
training. The infant seeks milk from the mothers breast,
and the newborn calf naturally nestles at the udder.
However for the infant to walk and talk, some training is
necessary, because these actions are either socially
prompted or learnt by example or picked up by imitation of
others. Training is essential even for the proper pursuit of
sense pleasure, for wild untrained search for such
pleasure promotes anger, hatred, envy, malice and
conceit. Hence to train the senses along salutary lines and
to hold them under control, certain good disciplines like
repeating Lords
Name (japa), meditation (dhyana), fasts(upavasa), worship
at dawn and dusk, etc. are essential. Though sense
pleasures are natural at first, by constant practice,
training and listening to the wise, slowly the greater and
everlasting bliss derived by divine adoration is grasped.
- Bhagavatha Vahini, Ch 1

Exulting in praising the Lord is the real hallmark of the good. Baba
