"The question that haunt us and pressurize us while we live - whence have we come, to where are we proceeding, how did the universe originate etc. etc., All religions try to answer these questions. Man has set down, in all lands, certain rules and regulations in order to secure orderly and smooth running of his daily schedule of activities, directed to the actual process of living. Since they have become part of the code of conduct; they are also described as 'Discipline',"
"Wisdom flashes like lightening amidst the clouds of the inner sky; one has to foster the flash, and preserve the light. That is the true sign of the educated person. Do not believe that mastery of many TOMES makes you wise. Wisdom can grow only where humility prevails. It thrives when man is afraid of vice and sin and is attached to the Divine, in himself and in all else."
"Matham is a matter of mathi; 'Religion is based on the urge that moves the mind; if the urge is Divine we have a divine religion; if it is bestial, then things held lovable and desirable will be bestial too. Join the particular with the Universal, the limited with the Unlimited, the river with the Sea. This is the process called YOGA. This can be achieved through Bhakthi or Karma or Jnana."

"Everyone's priorities in life continuously undergo changes because of alterations in their circumstances. For example, if you were to invite a devotee to accompany you to Puttaparthi, he may regret inability on the grounds that he has exhausted all his leave. And yet on the same day if he receives a message in his place of work that his son has met with an accident, he would proceed on leave without pay to attend to the treatment of his child.
Forget and Forgive all that has happened amongst you from this very moment and start a new chapter of love and brotherhood from now on.
There are three lines along which endeavour has to be directed. (1) Spiritual Exercises and Discipline, (2) the cultivation of detachment and (3) the development of confidence in one's Self, without these three the life is a wearisome and wasteful journey through the sands, give up, renounce that is the virtue you need for spiritual progress. It is not the value of the thing given up that counts; it is the loftiness of the impulse behind the act" -- Sri Sathya Sai Baba.
