this manifoldness is but he, seen through the mirror of nature! Everything<br />

is for the attainment of the Supreme, to be utilised for that high<br />

purpose. Nothing is to be used as itself, for itself. For <strong>Sai</strong> devotees, this<br />

is the only proper way of life. No no object; all only objectives. And, the<br />

objective is realising the reality that is, the Atman, God! 18.7.70, (21-<br />

276/279)<br />

<strong>The</strong> snows on the mountain peaks soften during the day, as a result<br />

of the sun: they harden during the night, since the sun is absent. So<br />

too, your heart hardens me: your soft hearts soften me. Underst<strong>and</strong><br />

this: Each of you knows the love of a single mother only. But my affection,<br />

my Love towards each one of you is that of a thous<strong>and</strong> mothers!<br />

Do not deny yourself that affection, that love, by denying me your love!<br />

4.10.70, (21-298)<br />

It is impossible for any one to underst<strong>and</strong> or explain the meaning <strong>and</strong><br />

significance of <strong>Sai</strong>. <strong>The</strong>re can be no possible means of approach to<br />

this manifestation, from the stage which you can attain. This is an incarnation,<br />

an embodiment, which is beyond any one's comprehension.<br />

Trying to explain me would be as futile as the attempt of a person who<br />

does not know the alphabet to read a learned volume, or the attempt<br />

to pour the ocean into a tiny waterway. You can at best only prepare<br />

yourself to receive <strong>and</strong> benefit by the bliss I confer, the bliss I grant.<br />

You too have the <strong>Sai</strong> principle in you, but the difference is a matter of<br />

voltage. You have bulbs of zero watt power, <strong>and</strong> bulbs of vast quantities<br />

of wattage giving enormous light. <strong>The</strong> same electric current passes<br />

through them no doubt, but, how incomprehensible must be the Supreme<br />

for the “molecule”. (...)<br />

Do not have low desires <strong>and</strong> seek low deities that cater to the fulfillment<br />

of these. Yearn for the highest wisdom, the highest bliss, the<br />

highest power, the Atman. Yearn for nothing less than the Highest;<br />

pray to the sovereign giver. Believe that <strong>Sathya</strong> <strong>Sai</strong> <strong>Baba</strong> is in your<br />

heart, as your Atman, unshakable, full of love. 9.10.70, (21-325/326)<br />

You have to outgrow the idol, picture <strong>and</strong> image; they are the kindergarten<br />

materials in spiritual schools; seek to know the Divine energy,<br />

that is burdened with no name <strong>and</strong> no form. Rise higher into the empyrean<br />

heights of the pure attributeless transcendent One.<br />

I shall not change my course even by a hair's breadth, as a result of<br />

what people may say about me. I am not afraid of any one or thing.<br />
