Issue 194 - September 13, 2020 | | Mind is the cause of bondage and liberation, and if one can master this mind, one can become not just a mastermind but the master Himself, says Sadguru Sri Madhusudan Sai. In this series of talks, 'Master the Mind', primarily given to the Ashram residents of Sathya Sai Grama, Sadguru Sri Madhusudan Sai guides us step by step, to take up a 30 day sadhana to understand, analyse, master and finally merge the mind into the divine self. | | INNER VIEW By Sri Madhusudan Naidu Law Of Love
When a young lawyer, working with the Trust, stood right at the door as Swami emerged, He looked at the lawyer and playfully remarked, "Oh you and I don't go together. Yours is law and mine is love. Law knows no love, and love knows no law."
Though it sounded like a light hearted comment from Swami, yet weighed in gold.
I have seen Him change all the laws, the existential and the ephemeral, for the sake of Love. Whether in the most extraordinary way when He beckoned a departed soul back in to the body on the plea of a devastated wife, undoing death and discarding the law of Universe; or when He identified an ordinary boy on the street as a student of the campus who had dropped out, unable to pay the hostel fee and took him back half way through the year bending the policies of the University, He only proved it beyond doubt that love never knew any law, for love alone was law to Him. | | Annapoorna Breakfast Seva Without Break | | Allapuzha District, Kerala July 18, 2020 | | Under the auspices of the Sri Sathya Sai Annapoorna Trust, the breakfast scheme was first initiated at the Alapuzha T.D.G.B School in Kerala in 2017.
