Dear
All,
Few
who attended a spiritual session at home today would be aware that
even till the morning, the next theme was "Drig Drsya Viveka" a
vedantic treatise.
But
divine command from within is to share the precious JNANA VAHINI, which the
divine incarnation SAI has given to the world of sincere
spiritual seekers.
Preface
to this invaluable vahini, as given by Late Prof. Kasturji is given
below.
"Dear
Reader,
This
is not just another book on the Nature of Jiva and the technique by which the
Jiva discovers its Reality. When you turn over the pages, you are actually
sitting at the Feet of Bhagavan Sri Sathya Sai Baba, the Avathar of the Age,
come in answer to the prayers of Sadhus and Sadhakas to guide them and grant
them Peace and Perfection.
"Place
all your burdens on Me", He says. "Start on the spiritual pilgrimage
this very day", He exhorts. "Why fear, when I am here?" He asks.
His Grace is Omnipresent; His miraculous powers proclaim His Omnipotence. His
wisdom, His analysis of the ills of Humanity and His prescriptions for their
cure reveal His Omniscience.
You
have the unique chance of meeting Him, at the Prasanthi Nilayam, and receiving
from Him His Blessings for the success of your spiritual pilgrimage. He
appreciates your earnestness and faith; and you can continue with greater
confidence and courage because He assures victory. He is the Eternal Teacher of
the Gita, the Charioteer in your heart.
In
the pages of the magazine, published with His Blessings and named after Him as
Sanathana Sarathi, He wrote, out of His overwhelming Prema towards humanity
caught in the meshes of cynicism and credal fanaticism, this series of articles
called Jnana Vahini.
Month
after month, thousands of readers awaited these articles (in the original
Telugu as well as in the English translation) and when they received their
copy, they perused it diligently and with reverential eagerness. They are now
put together in book form, for your guidance and inspiration.
N.
Kasturi, Editor, Sanathana Sarathi".
Love.
