Roy Eugene Davis'
loving efforts have helped thousands to achieve a freedom of the spirit
which has given them strength to live through the trying circumstances
the world often presents us with. His site is, csa-davis.org/roy.html
A quote from Roy:."What
is our real purpose for being in this world? It is to awaken to knowledge
of ourselves as spiritual beings in relationship to a
Reality which, not confined by space, time or relative circumstances,
is infinite. When realization of transcendent
knowledge is accomplished, when it is completely and permanently unfolded,
we can live freely in the physical realm
with enlightened
understanding. When we are fully enlightened while expressing
through a body, our awareness extends beyond the sense perceived environment
to include all planes
and dimensions
of the cosmos
and beyond them, to
eternity. It is only the soul's confinement of
awareness.(cut
off from the influence of the Soul; realize all is one
and connected).to
an erroneous
belief of independent selfhood that limits it. The truth is, because the
soul is a unit of God's consciousness,
it
is infinite."
Those who love, serve and
benefit others are sure to receive a high
reward lasting for ever.
Sri Satya Sai Baba
Like Paramahansa
Yogananda was, Satya Sai Baba, now passed on, was also a disciplined
and sparse living
individual, preferring to restrict his own lifestyle in order to have the
most to give to others in need. Einstein
was this way as well.
Satya traveled all over
India to serve and help. He had devoted his life to the spiritual regeneration
of India through the education of youth.
Sai's Education in Human
Values (EHV) children's course is taught in schools.(and
what else should be taught in school? 1,
2,
3).in
100 countries. With a strong religious orientation,
it expounds
five qualities in words, beautiful in English and Hindi:
truth.(satya),
righteousness.(dharma),
peace.(shanti),
love.(prema).and
nonviolence.(ahimsa).
"All perfection and every
divine virtue are hidden within you. Reveal them to the world."....Sai
Baba.
EHV rejects the rote
learning, so often thought sufficient for education, instead emphasizing
Indian techniques, such as silent sitting, quotation, storytelling, song
and group activities.
Sai Baba firmly advocates
vegetarianism, stating."Meat.(too
much of it).furthers
the demonic qualities in you", because it
tends to turn your mind to the other
side of you.

And a book by him that
you can have free.
Ahead of many in the world,
he is very clear on the relationship between poor diet and poor health.(see
about Diet in 'Macrobiotics').and
the impact of chemical farming
and GM.(genetically
altered {abused} food; 'frankenfood').food
methods in reducing the quality and amount of food grown. Genetically modified
food puts the entire production of food at great risk. But man is.so
stupid.in
his trying to outdo God.
His $18US million Puttaparthi
Heart Hospital is just the latest in a vast spectrum of free medical services
which include even major heart and brain surgery. He condemns doctors who
profit from illness and advocates the principles of traditional ayurveda.('ayur'
means 'of life' and 'veda' means 'knowledge').
He has endeared himself to villagers by offering veterinarian facilities
which have prevented crippling diseases among cattle. His 1995 project
brought safe drinking water to 800 villages through pipes and tube wells.
Sai Baba submits."Miracles
belong to the boundless power of God.".Perhaps
Sai Baba's least appreciated power lies in his preaching. Twice each day
he lectured.articulately
in Telegu to ample
crowds, explaining with trenchant.insight
every aspect
of Hinduism. A devotee
said he understood the Creator to be within us all. Baba corrected."Not
exactly. Think of it this way: You are like a fish swimming in
the divine ocean that is God. God is above you, below you, inside and
out."
Know in your heart that your
world is you.(never
can you understand this from the ego
level you have been accustomed
to; it can be understood from the higher
consciousness level of the spirit).and
revolves around you because you are the Creator in individual expression.
Like the ocean's individual waves contain all of what the ocean is, so
it is with you once you get the understanding of your
spirit's connection with the Soul.
"You are not your thoughts.
All thoughts are visitors to your mind. Every thought that you think carries
its own vibration of feeling. So in choosing your thoughts you choose your
feelings. Choose only the highest thoughts that are positive, happy and
healing to your mind. Be happy!"....Sri
Mahavatar Babaji, also known as Haidakhan Babaji.
