Sai Inspires from Prasanthi Nilayam - May 30, 2025
Narration

Original
Why are we unable to experience true peace and happiness, and what is the surest way to experience them? Bhagawan lovingly and poignantly reminds us today!
Body is a combination of five elements, and the mind is merely a bundle of thoughts. One should neither be attached to the body nor follow the vagaries of the mind. Drive away the evil qualities of kama, krodha, lobha, moha, mada and matsarya (desire, anger, greed, infatuation, pride and jealousy) and manifest your inner peace and bliss. Instead of developing peace and bliss, man is destroying them. He is giving scope to unrest even in trivial matters. Neither ashanti (unrest) nor prashanti (supreme peace) are acquired from outside. People say, “I want peace.” Where is peace? Is it present outside? If peace were to be found outside, people would have bought it by spending any amount of money. But outside, we find only pieces! The real peace is within! Whether you boil it hard or dilute it with water, milk remains white. White symbolises purity. Like the consistency in milk, your heart should always remain pure, bright and peaceful in spite of trials and tribulations!

We should subdue sorrow, keep the evil qualities of anger, hatred and jealousy under check and manifest our innate bliss! - BABA
