Passage 36

In English

Certain issues relate to you especially, and some things have to be told to you about those issues. Yes, the conditions and traditions in this country are different from the conditions and traditions that exist in your countries in some respects. Although you may have individual groups, such as a group or a group conducting a specific service activity, all these groups should have a central organisation, called the Council of Management, to look after the needs of all these groups. Do not give place for individual authority. You should recognise the need for a Council of Management, not an individual but a group of people, each one responsible for taking care of one aspect or the other of the total Sathya Sai Organisation. One organisation should not discuss or comment on the other organisation, which could lead to one of them feeling superior to the other. This kind of discussion, which could lead to one feeling superior or inferior to the other, should always be avoided. If one notices some kind of a difference or lapse in an organisation, then the members of the council of management should regard it as a duty to come together and make all efforts to remove this discrepancy or lapse. All of them must work like fingers of one hand. Bearing these thoughts in mind, you must pave the way for the growth of the organisation. You must swiftly dispel the unrest currently prevailing and experience a state of bliss - Prasanthi. It’s My earnest wish that you realise My ultimate objective: that everyone should pray, chanting, ‘’, for the well-being of all nations, ensuring that they remain prosperous and that everyone lives in safety and security. Blessing thus, I conclude My discourse.
