Sri Sathya Sai Baba



When one performs a kriya (action) as an offering to the Lord, his good, the higher good and the highest good, Swartha, Pararatha and Paramaartha, all become one. First I and you become we. Next we and He become identified. The Jiva (i.e., the Individual soul, I) should accomplish identity, first with the Creation (i.e., the Prakriti, You) and then with the Paramatma (i.e., the Supreme Soul, He). This indeed is the significance of the manthra (sacred formula, mystic syllable), Om Thath Sath.

Today, yesterday and tomorrow Om Thath Sath is, was and will be. “He” and “I” are there always. The Sadhana is also there always. Just as the sun is inseparable and is never apart from its rays, under no circumstances should any aspirant be without his sadhana. It is only when the Saadhaka (spiritual aspirant) adheres to his sadhana in such an incessant manner can he be said to be one with Om (the Pranava, the original sound).
