1994-10-22 - Saturday - parting words of advice after exams


A screenshot from this video - Trayee Brindavana Sai | Sai Bhajans

Electronics paper was "suthifying" (Hostel slang for irritating or boring) but You made me complete it reasonably well.

Trayee - You said on entreaties, "I will speak to them after they return, seeing if they've followed what all I have said till now." But finally You did speak - about do's and don'ts, 'the same thing will happen to your family members', and so on. I think I have got a paper with today's discourse highlights but maybe another day's. A story about Jagat tatwa and Jeeva tatwa - a man who had made Krishna, cow, and peacock of 20 tolas of gold each, was unhappy when money lenders said the same 20,000 rupees for all three. Then talking of knack - beauty contest of Lakshmi and Daridra Devatha. O Lakshmi! You look so nice coming! O Daridra Devata! You look so nice going! Not to offend either. 

It is very dangerous to go to others houses these days. Also only beggars go from house to house. Excess talk is bad in this young age. Run away from bad company - you have legs haven't you? Mounam of sages conserved energy, memory, age. Listening to others' bad deeds is like clicking camera on dirt. Kaika had sent Rama for 14 years as that was the time after which He loses right on throne. 

Swami is happy when he sees blind people, for they are free from the sin of evil sight. Keechaka's story: thought, 'My sister the queen doesn't hold a candle to Sairandhri's beauty!' and was staring, when Bheema entered, saw, and brained him with one blow of ladle. Dharmaja's one vice - gambling - today's IPS, IAS officers also - horses etc. King hit him when angry with dice - blood oozed - Draupadi wiped, since if Dharmaja's blood fell on earth, would make the land barren. 

Dhritrashtra is one who wants others' kingdom for himself - if you want to make that girl yours, you are Dhritrashtra. Never forget - people are afraid of bombs but not afraid of scientist. Swami wants love not respect. 

People pay money and cry at cinema.  Food very important. When I was young and used to teach Pandari bhajan, two ladies fought with all bad words - and one was feeding her infant at the time. The baby died after an hour! poison milk. Food, head and God are related. Don't eat in front of TV. Neighbours should also praise: that boy has improved by going to Swami's college. 

Next: public Discourse
