Passage 1

Tap any word for its meaning.

In plain words

The work one does with the body, tellanu, all the words one speaks, to all the thoughts that are in one's Manas, all the doings of the ten senses, the resolve that rises in the Buddhi, tellanu, the brooding in the citta, tella, all the observances one keeps day by day, the discipline one practises by rule, tella: in Vedic rites and in worldly conduct, whatever one does, if one regards all of it as service one is doing for Īśvara, the Sri Sai Organisation becomes fruitful, tella.

The whole universe is full of Hari; Hari is full of the universe: there is no room for doubt. Of substance not full of Hari, there is not an atom on earth, if you look closely.

Embodiments of the divine Ātma!

The whole universe is full of God. This whole universe, full of God, is full of karma. Karma means the life-force itself. The vehicle of this life-force is this human state. The human body itself is full of karma. That is why the Śrutis have described it as karmaja, 'born of karma'. Man has come forth from karma itself. That is why all the acts man does, all that he does with his hands and feet and his other limbs, are full of Viṣṇu. So we must regard all the karmas man does, every one of them, as nothing but acts of God. Krētā yiti karmaḥ. All the acts man does are forms of karma. Whatever karmas man does, he does them with selfishness, with desire for their fruit and with Ahaṅkāra.
