Sai Inspires from Prasanthi Nilayam February 29, 2016

What is true and chaste devotion? Bhagawan lovingly explains the qualities of
a good devotee and how one must approach devotion during times of
difficulties.

Irrespective of whatever inconveniences you may

encounter, you must continue your spiritual practices with
the same discipline. The smarana (remembrance) of the
Name of the Lord you cherish should go on. Your chosen
Name must not give you the slightest feeling of dislike or
apathy. If the Name is changed frequently, concentration
is impossible, and your mind will not attain onepointedness, which is the goal of all spiritual disciplines.
Avoid constant adoption and rejection of Lords Names.
Be convinced that all Names and Forms are the same
name and form that you adore. Take all worldly losses,
sufferings, and worries as merely temporal and transitory,
and realise that repetition of the Name and meditation is
only to overcome such grief. You must understand that
loss, suffering, and worry are external, they belong to this
world, while repetition of the Name and meditation are

internal, they belong to the realm of the love for the Lord.
- Prema Vahini, Ch 64

God first, the world next and myself last this is the secret to joy! Baba
