Vol.1 Part 2 - Other Themes - Freedom




Freedom is liberty of the mind, freedom of action in all that you do. You have your laws in every country and you are required to live within the framework of those laws, but this still leaves you with great freedom in the way that you actually live and behave.



Examine this freedom and the way that you live, and consider whether you are also living your life according to the laws of God. What are those laws? They are reflected in the teachings of the Lord, teachings which have been handed down over many centuries, teachings which have been reinforced by the divine incarnation of the Sai Avatar. Notice the similarity in the teachings of Christ and the Prophets and the teachings which I offer to you today.



God is love. Bring love into your lives and you will approach the Kingdom of Heaven, not a place, as you understand it, but a state of being, a level of consciousness, the Christ level of consciousness where you and God unite and become one.



This is the goal of every living soul and it is a path which may seem long and arduous, but that is only because so few of you tread the path in the right way, or even in the right direction.



You need a compass, a Sai compass, that is a compass which reflects the teachings of Sai. If you steer your way forward with the Sai compass, you will reach the goal and you will experience on the path showers of Sai love which fall on you from all directions. That is the food which you need to sustain you on the journey and it is the only food which will give you the sustenance which your body and soul require on the long journey.



Start that journey afresh today, equipped with the Sai compass and never waver from the path, regardless of its distractions which you experience during the journey.



Desire will remain until love fills your heart to such an extent that there is no longer room for anything else. When love overflows, as it does when the Lord showers it upon you, then and only then do you become immune to any aspect of earthly desire. At that stage you see only God, desire only God, and finally you become God with the complete merging of the soul.



That is ultimate liberation and every one's goal.
