Even an insect can cause harm. To do good is difficult. Anybody can do harm. But only few can do good. Unless you are good at heart, speak good words, and perform good deeds, how do you expect Sai to feel happy and bless you? If you are not good at heart, cannot speak good words, and do good acts how do you expect God to give you boons? This is complete ignorance. If you want to be blessed by God, you must develop a good heart, speak good words, and must have good conduct. When these qualities are there in you, you are bound to get Divine blessings. Purity of mind, good speech, and selfless service, results in enlightenment. If words and deeds do not match, one is bound to face problems in life. There are good persons also in the world. But hardly anyone enquires about their physical and mental well being! If there are no good people, the world would not have been what it is today. Human birth is sacred. Unfortunately, many human beings behaviour is worse than that of animals. They only strive for materialistic possessions, all along, and seldom they think of God. But they do resort to part-time devotion, at times! As you think, you become.

2. How we are more same than different

Birth and death are common for every human being. They are equal. An affluent person does not come from the sky and a poor man does not come from a different place. Both come from mother’s labour. Hunger and thirst are same for all. An affluent person may take rich food with a variety of dishes. A poor man may take only Ragi soup. But hunger is identical in both of them. Therefore, hunger and thirst, birth and death, heart and body are identical for one and all. This UNITY in DIVERSITY must be understood by one and all.

3. We should exercise unity in diversity

“Isa vaasyam midam sarvam” the divinity that exists in all manifests as humanness. Man today is becoming scholarly in viewing the diversity in unity but the capacity to see and believe the unity, the oneness, in diversity is on the decline. One must see the unity in the diversity for that is truly the essence of “Rasovai saha”. That is “unity in diversity!” In this modern age the path of unity is the one that has to be followed. Man must develop faith which is unwavering and steady. Steady vision and unwavering mind must be developed to make human life stable. The greatest victory of man lies in achieving stability in life.

Man today is wasting his life by indulging in selfish motives and by not believing in the transcendental reality. The castle of life built on the water bubble of selfishness is bound to collapse. Hence the Upanishads have reiterated, “Utthishtata, jagrata, prapyavarannibodhata!” urging one to wake up from the slumber of ignorance and realise the truth. When can one get such wisdom? One must realise the truth that all are one.

Embodiment’s of love! Unity is the most essential today to mould Bharat as an ideal country. All our leaders of the past they sacrificed and they have determined and achieved independence. They have achieved independence but they have not achieved unity till now. What is the use of independence? Because of the lack of unity we are suffering today. We find hatred all over. There are ten parties with in one party. The same family has got different paths, how do you expect independence to be maintained. This is not what we are supposed to learn. We should recognize the oneness in all and we are blind because we have lost the sight. You may not have faith in anybody at least have faith in yourself. That is divine. First have confidence in yourself, then you will have confidence in God and this is the secret of greatness. If you have faith in you then you will have faith in God and then you will understand that you are God. God has no specific form and this very positive ‘I’ is divine. Having faith in this oneness, to protect our country, with unity, we can certainly accomplish any divine power. You will be successful in any path.

6. See Unity in diversity and not vice-versa

Depending upon the circumstances and the state, the inner entity can be classified into four types. When filled with thoughts and wills, it is called as ‘Manas’ or mind. When it wavers, the inner state is called as ‘Chitta’. When using the element of discrimination it is called as ‘buddhi’ or the intellect. When filled with the motive of attachment and selfishness, it is called as ‘Ahankara’ or ego. The inner entity is given different names of ‘mind’, ‘chitta’, ‘buddhi’ and ‘Ahankara’ based on the changes in its qualities. It is good to understand the basic difference between ‘Manas’, the mind and ‘buddhi’, the intellect. The mind has a divisive tendency. Intellect is beyond such divisions. Hence, ‘buddhi’ can be associated with adwaitha. Division is the quality of dwaitha and this dwaitha divides the one into many. Buddhi on the other hand proves the unity or oneness in diversity. All the Sadhanas or the spiritual exercises that one undertakes must be to realise the underlying unity in the diversity and not vice versa. Hence, the Gayathri mantra is the sacred mantra that proves the underlying unity in the diversity. One attains divinity and sanctity through the principle of unity.

7. The law of life is Unity

We should not think that divinity is existing only in a specific form. There is need for unity. It is not possible to solve the problems in the world today by any other means. Unity is essential. The law of life is Unity. You can get divine joy only in this particular form. Only when there is that unity in every human being you can find purity. That purity itself becomes divinity. Therefore, unity is essential. Unity is absolutely necessary. If you want to enjoy this oneness, it is only possible through love.
