God equals man minus ego.

You have come from God, you are a spark of His Glory; you are a wave of that Ocean of Bliss; you will get peace only when you again merge in Him.

The heart with compassion is the temple of God.

If God is a flower, you should feel yourself a bee that sucks its honey;

If he is a Tree, Be a creeper that clings to it; If he is the sky, be a tiny star that twinkles in it.

Above all, be conscious of the Truth

That you and He are bound

By Supreme Love.

God has no preferences and prejudices; His is but reaction, reflection and resound.

Prayer must emanate from the heart, where God resides, and not from the head where doctrines and doubts clash.

Nations are many, but Earth is one;

Beings are many, but Breath is one;

Stars are many, but Sky is one;

Oceans are many, but Water is one;

Religions are many, but God is one;

Jewels are many, but Gold is one;

Appearances are many, but Reality is One.

God, if you think, God you are. Dust if you think, dust you are. As you think, so you become. Think God, be God.

Transmuting "man" into "God" and experiencing that Ananda or Bliss is the one and only achievement for which life is to be devoted.

Duty is God;

Work is worship.

O Lord, take my love and let it flow in fullness of devotion to Thee.

O Lord, take my hands and let them work incessantly for Thee.

O Lord, take my soul and let it be merged in oneness with Thee.

O Lord, take my mind and thoughts and let them be in tune with Thee.

O Lord, take my everything and let me be an instrument for thy work.

God is the mother and father of the world.

Our parents are the mother and father of this body.

God is one; there are not many Gods, one for each tribe among men.

Once we surrender our mind to God completely, He will take care of us in every way.

— From the discourses of Sathya Sai Baba

God or devil, good or bad are denisens of one's own heart

Where God is there the devil cannot be.

God plays pranks and directs.

He causes tears and quenches tears.

He cures madness and inflicts madness.

God rewards according to the manner

in which He is conceived or approached.

He grants you consolation and courage

Once you have cleansed yourself by tears.

— From the discourses of Sathya Sai Baba

God is the Seed;

The Universe is the Tree,

Impulses and passions are the branches,

Intelligence is the flower,

Pure Consciousness is the fruit,

Love is the sweetness in the fruit.

— From the discourses of Sathya Sai Baba

See God in everyone you meet;

See God in everything you handle;

Live together; Revere each other;

Let not the seeds of envy and hate grow and choke

The clear stream of love.

— From the discourses of Sathya Sai Baba

God is

The soul of Life;

God is

The Granter, the Force,

The Sustainer.

— From the discourses of Sathya Sai Baba

God is worshipped only in

pictures, images, idols.

He is not recognised in

all living beings,

In beauty, harmony, melody,

truth and goodness.

— From the discourses of Sathya Sai Baba

God thinks, plans and resolves

in all heads,

He sees through all the eyes,

He eats through all mouths,

Hears through every ear.

— From the discourses of Sathya Sai Baba

God will never disown you,

for He is your very core,

Your basic Reality.

— From the discourses of Sathya Sai Baba

God will certainly be pleased if you give water for the thirsty, bread for the hungry and clothes to the naked.

— From the discourses of Sathya Sai Baba

Love God with all your heart,

With all your soul

and with all your strength.

Love is the form of Brahman (The Supreme Reality)

Brahman is love Divine.

The merger of human love with

Divine love brings about Cosmic Order

One who is full of love attains

The states of Oneness with Him.

— From the discourses of Sathya Sai Baba

Why fear when I am here?

Never be afraid of anything because God is in you, with you, above you, around you. He follows you like a shadow. Never forget him.

— From the discourses of Sathya Sai Baba

If you incline towards God the passions that enslaves you will be rendered powerless.

— From the discourses of Sathya Sai Baba

If you become aware of God's presence within you and also the presence of the same God in all else,

There is nothing to equal the peace and joy that you get.

— From the discourses of Sathya Sai Baba

God can be addressed by any name that taste sweet to your tongue or pictured in any form that appeals to your sense of wonder and awe.

God designed in different faiths adored by different human communities are all limbs of the One God that really is.

God does not live in structures of stone or brick. He lives in soft hearts warm with sympathy and fragrant with universal love.

God has no forms, no limbs, no qualities, no preferences, no prejudices.

God has no beginning and no end.

— From the discourses of Sri Sathya Sai Baba

Without God, life is like a school without a teacher. It is a wire with no current passing through it; it is a body with no soul.

— Sathya Sai Baba

"This world is His Play, it is not an empty dream; it has purpose and use. It is the means by which we can discover God; see Him in the beauty, grandeur, the order, the majesty of nature. these are but shadows of His glory and His Splendour. The play is His, the role is his gift, the lines are written by Him; He directs, He decides the dress and decoration, the gesture and the tone, the entrance and the exit. You have to act well the part and receive His approbation, when the curtain falls. Earn, by your efficiency and enthusiasm, the right to play higher and higher roles - that is the meaning and purpose of life. Do not worry about anything. Place yourself fully at His disposal, He knows. He has written the Play and He knows how it will end and how it will go on. Yours is but to act and retire. The Lord alone is aware of the Play, for His is the Plan! You see only the part of the Play on the stage and so it is all very confused. When the entire story is unfolded, then you will appreciate His plan, not until then; for that, you will have to get behind the screen of Maya and contact the Director Himself. While you are an actor on the stage reciting your role, you cannot grasp the inner meaning of the entire play which has the 'World' as the stage ang 'ages' as the duration. You are only actors on the stage, before the footlights. The Director who knows the Play, who assigns the roles, who gives the cues, who calls you in and puts you on - He is behind the curatin. You're a puppet, He holds the strings. You are only working out His plan. Identification with the adventure in the Play and with its success or failure."

— From the discourses of Sri Sathya Sai Baba
