Of Him , In Him , With Him , Within Him , Within Us.....

Sathya Sai Baba - 1926 - Eternity .. 

It is heart wrenching, that God, that is to say our Dear Lord Sai, has made us convey what we earnestly prayed we would never have to do. But God's will always prevails. If He has decided to bring the curatain down on this incarnation, so it has to be. However, He cannot go away from our Hearts, where He has to be forever... 
His legacy will continue. He still walks and He is still amongst us. It pierces like an arrow not to be able to see His physical form but now He is literally living in us. I can't describe the feelings but I feel so very much closer to Him and all that matters now is to continue His work and never to fail Him. We are His voice, His vision, His senses, His limbs and His heart who will go on spreading and showing the never ending love and support to every one. We are His messiah's in the Golden Age that has begun !
In wallets, on car dashboards, in between pages, on desks, in our music systems, on cupboards, tucked in photo frames , everywhere else and most importantly in our hearts .. ..Swami , you live on ...forever & ever....

Of " How are you? " 's ...and how much they matter...

I wonder how many of us have thought about how important it is to ask another person this question ,



Here is some food for thought :

Most of the time , when we meet someone it seems like the most obvious thing to say " Hey , How are you? " ...but i wonder , how many of us really mean to ask it.. and how many of us wait for a response , only then continue with the conversation ahead...


I recently met someone after very long, who is sooo full of herself/himself (i'm not getting into those details), that the person did not even bother asking me, even once, in the 3 - 4 days that i continuously met the person ,as to how i was!

In the begining i did not even realise that i was not asked THE question... but as days passed by , and as i kept listening to stories about whats happening in her/his life ...
I finally realised..not only had i not spoken much! (not that im complaining about not being able to talk , considering how much i love not to!)... but neither had i been asked EVEN ONCE in the last 4 days as to HOW I WAS!
Wow!! it really woke me up!! and made me think and realise how important it is to ask someone , more than just casually  , " How are you my dear one? " ...

It makes soo much of a difference! It just shows that you too care .. and that you are there .. with him/her in that conversation...as someone who matters..
Over time and growing up , i have realised a few things , and this definitely is one of them!
I'd probably even ask a stranger , i've just met, as to how they're doing! Maybe , some of you think thats taking it too far , thats fine.. i could agree to an extent! but that's just me! :)

How many of you will actually now on not forget to ask  the next person you meet or talk to today ,  " How are you? " , " my dear one " .. is something i would love to add, depending on how dear the person is ;)

Is there anyone who doesn't agree with me? I'd love to hear from you and exchange views  :)
