I wished to convey to you some things which others cannot convey.<br />

From tomorrow, try to put all these into practice <strong>and</strong> enjoy the Divine<br />

bless <strong>and</strong> become one with Divinity. Do not fill your head with mere information<br />

<strong>and</strong> knowledge. Fill your hearts with love. I am hoping that<br />

you will thus fill your hearts with the essential content of my discourses<br />

<strong>and</strong> prepare yourself for meeting the future life. 1974, (36-276/290)<br />

<strong>The</strong> reputation of our motherl<strong>and</strong> has been known all the world over<br />

from time immemorial. That reputation is now being sharpened by the<br />

<strong>Sai</strong> ideals <strong>and</strong> the <strong>Sai</strong> teachings. You young people should give it a further<br />

shining with your care <strong>and</strong> attention. 1977, (37-195)<br />

Do not forget God; do not believe in the world; do not fear death. Like<br />

good food that comes to one who has been fasting for the past ten<br />

days, like a heavy down pour of rain that comes to fill the dried <strong>and</strong><br />

empty tanks, like a child coming into a family which has for long been<br />

yearning for children like a shower of wealth on a very poor man, has<br />

come Shri <strong>Sathya</strong> <strong>Sai</strong> <strong>Baba</strong> in Puttaparti when there is a total decline<br />

of Divine law among the people. What better can I tell those who are<br />

assembled in this congregation? 1977, (37-248)<br />

Many of you are not willing to go back, but remember that Swami is<br />

with you. You should not have the feeling that to go back is an unwanted<br />

imposition. <strong>Sai</strong>’s ideals are like this. As a diamond has so many different<br />

facets, <strong>Sai</strong> has so many different facets. He is in all of you. Although<br />

the diamond has may facets around, it is the central portion of<br />

the diamond that is connected with all these facets. So boys <strong>and</strong> girls,<br />

all of you should develop into rays that are emanating from the centre.<br />

You should go <strong>and</strong> establish the form of service that you have opted<br />

to join. <strong>The</strong> lotus has many petals in it. But all those petals are connected<br />

with the central portion of the lotus. For <strong>Sathya</strong> <strong>Sai</strong> <strong>Baba</strong> who<br />

constitutes the central part of the lotus, you are all like the petals connected<br />

with the centre of the lotus. Young people, you should develop<br />

the spirit of sacrifice. Having developed the spirit of sacrifice, you<br />

should feel that there are no differences which are of religious origin.<br />

You should be able to establish the oneness of all religions. At all<br />

times, you should attempt to be of service to others. You must establish<br />

<strong>and</strong> maintain the sacred culture of Bharata. By accepting the sacred<br />

essence of our culture which you have learnt during the past 30<br />

days, you have experienced a kind of bliss. In the future as well, you<br />
