Why should we do it?
Whenever disharmony (asanthi) overwhelms the
world, I incarnate in human form to establish the
modes of earning peace (prasanthi) and to
re-educate the human community in the paths of
peace.
The establishment of righteousness (dharma): that is
my aim. The teaching of dharma, the spread of
dharma: that is my object.
My mission is to spread happiness, so I am always
ready to come among you not once, but twice or
thrice —as often as you want me.
Some of the speakers at the Conference have stated that
Swami is bringing about transformation in individuals When does
transformation take place? After a person has received
information. Therefore, the first requisite is to get the
information about the presence of the Divine Principle in all.
The Sai Organizations have been engaged in propagating this
"information." Seva (Service) is the ideal means by which this
message can be conveyed. You should all realise that the human
body has been' given to you solely to render selfless service.
Such service broadens the heart, destroys the ego and
Generates bliss. Service also helps to promote consciousness of
the brotherhood of man and the Fatherhood of God. Your task
does not end there. You have at the same time to propagate
the idea of Ekaathma-Bhaavam (spiritual oneness of all
mankind).
The transformation of the world is
related to the transformation of
the individual. The world will
change only when the individual
changes. When individuals are
good, society also becomes good.
His Work = Peace on
earth through
individual
transformation
How do we achieve
this transformation?
Swami says
“ The organisation is
intended to broaden your
love, to channelise your
activities through devoted
service.
Activity through the Organisation leads to
Individual Transformation
