Passage 1

(24 August 2007 is a day worthy to be written in letters of gold in the history of the Sri Sathya Sai Books and Publications Trust. For the Book Trust staff it was a festive day to be remembered for ever. After a gap of six years, Bhagavān again sanctified the Book Trust building that day with the touch of His divine feet. After He opened the Book Trust building with His divine hands on 23 August 2001, Bhagavān had visited only the bookstall and the audio-visual section. The Book Trust office, the multimedia hall and the Sanātana Sārathi office on the upper floor were not blessed with the touch of Swami's divine feet that day. Granting the heartfelt prayer the staff made on 23 August 2007 to mark the sixth anniversary of the Book Trust building, Swami, His heart full of compassion, came to the Book Trust office at nine o'clock the next morning and rocked their hearts in swings of joy as they saw Him, touched Him and spoke with Him. With the divine coming of Bhagavān Bābā every atom of the Book Trust came alive. The divine message Bhagavān graciously gave on this occasion filled the Book Trust staff with enthusiasm and fervour. The full text of that day's divine message of Bhagavān is printed below.)

All the children who work here are doing it with great Bhakti and śraddhā. This Book Trust has kept on growing through the very drive of the children. But books are not the main thing; the head is the main thing. We must bring what is in the book into the head and put it into practice through the hand.
