Sai Inspires from Prasanthi Nilayam - October 06, 2025
Narration
Translated
What is the desire we must all cultivate, and what must we do to realise it? Bhagawan, Our Loving Lord, clearly guides us today.
Bharat has sought to ensure the peace and security of nations for generations through instruction on spiritual development. She herself has been an example to others for spiritual virtues. “May all the worlds be happy” is the prayer echoing from the Vedas through centuries and over the globe. The sages, monarchs, scholars, and women of past ages dedicated their lives to solving the fundamental problems of the human situation and promoting world prosperity. They accepted sacrifice as their duty and destiny. Due to the degenerated time-spirit of today, self-interest has polluted the thoughts, words, and deeds of man! He acts as if things and persons have to be sought and loved because they are useful for him. This is only another instance of selfish love. Man is activated by desire; he plans and designs to win what he desires. Human life is a process where man awaits the harvest of the desires he sows. The desire has to be not for selfish personal advancement but for peace, happiness, and prosperity for all. Only then can the Vedic prayer mentioned above be realised.
