Happy Raksha Bandhan


Greetings to all sisters on the auspicious occasion of Rakshabandhan...


At school, 'all Indians are my brothers & sisters...' was part of the pledge @ assembly. Years later we understood the meaning of the pledge. We also observed, in a world that was increasingly less spiritual, this phrase was not being practised*. Perhaps it is time for us to re-discover the spirit of the pledge.


Vasudaiva Kutumbakam... was introduced much later in life. Very inspiring & truly divine...


Then, became a member of Sai Family... Among devotee-fraternity, we have truly felt the vibes of a perfect family. 


Love All... Serve All.  This is one teaching I have struggled to implement in life. But, if possible then I have lived up to the essence of 'vasudaiva kutumbakam'. Easier said than done. But worth trying...


Perhaps it is time to 'Love All' in the true spirit of one big family...


Samastha Lokaha Sukhino Bhavanthu


*PS : Sai Inspires for today (2nd Aug) is on practise. Practice speaks louder than precept. - Baba But Swami talks about spiritual practice : "Practice the withdrawal of the mind from the senses; it will slowly and steadily develop the skills which will release you from bondage"
