Sai Inspires from Prasanthi Nilayam January 22, 2016

What is the purpose of assiduously following spiritual practices? What will be

the outcome of such efforts? Bhagawan exhorts us with a practical example
today.
Many argue about how discipline (as described in the scriptures) can
result in the dawn of knowledge. Arent these mere bodily limitations,
they ask. Knowledge can arise only by the realisation of the principle
that guarantees self-realisation, they argue. But this line of thought is
based on a big mistake. Through these physical regulations,
traits (vasanas) are destroyed and concentration is established. Onepointedness is essential to establish spiritual wisdom firmly in the heart,
and this one-pointedness can easily be gained by bodily disciplines and
austerities (tapas) prescribed in the Upanishads. External control helps
internal control in many ways. To succeed in external controls indeed is
more difficult than to achieve success in controlling the internal! In a
working car, the wheels will always follow the direction of the steering.
A turn of the steering wheel in ones hand in any direction makes the
wheels of the car, which are not in your hand, move in the same
direction of the steering wheel isnt it?
- Prema Vahini, Ch 53

Continuous remembrance of the Lords Name (namasmarana) is the secret to

liberation from bondage. Baba
