Today's Thought for the Day

 Loving Sai Ram from Prasanthi Nilayam
13 Aug 2020

Many of us practice chanting the Name of the Lord. Is that practice enough? Bhagawan lovingly gives us a barometer to assess ourselves today!

 Sathya Sai Baba 

The wrong notion that the world is real and that you are the body has been so deeply implanted in you through birth after birth, that it can be removed only by means of a very potent drug administered continuously. The drug, “Ram Ram Ram” (chanting of God’s name) must be swallowed and assimilated ceaselessly. Its curative essence will travel into every limb, every sense organ, every nerve and every drop of blood. Every atom in you will be transmuted into Ram. You must melt in the crucible and be poured into the Ram mould and become Ram. That is the fruition of real-wisdom, real devotion! This result of chanting Rama, Krishna or any other Name will be experienced by anyone, when chanted continuously with a pure heart and when absorbed in the mind! The Name alone will help control all the vagaries of the senses which drag you away into vanities!
