Spirituality and the human
There are many people in our lives – some we are friends with and some we do not treat as friends. The Master is all Love, pure love. How, then, do we love those who have hurt us, who have put us down, who have harmed us in any way? Love is everything. Our mission has begun, our Mission is Love. How, then, do we love everyone? We are told, Love All – Serve All. Read what the Master gives in meditation.
Fleeting it wasn’t. What started as her own seeking turned into her latest book, The Mystics Would Like a Word. The book unpacks teachings from six mystics: Teresa of Ávila, Margery Kempe, Hildegard of Bingen, Julian of Norwich, Catherine of Siena and Thérèse of Lisieux. “I thought, ‘More people should know about this. I’m going to make it into a book!’” she said.

Humans seeking progress towards the goal of life, need to engage in self-monitoring (or self audit) in order to engage in progressive steps to reach the goal. Some say “God graces me” and infer that this is all that is needed. Not true, spiritual progress requires spiritual effort: time, talents and resources have to be directed towards the goal.
Today’s world does not suit you. In your way of thinking it is logical then that you blame Divinity or you deny its existence altogether. This is based on falsehood. You do not take into account the fact that it is you who create the world. It assumes shape according to your desires. If they are destructive desires, far removed from goodness and love, in time you face the consequences. Then you look for the guilty ones outside — always outside. The truth is that you alone determine shape of the world.
Once again, the Cosmic Sai Baba gives a message at Bundanoon, NSW. In these days of conflict and ghastly scenes splashed over all forms of media, the Cosmic Sai Baba reminds us of our origins and the grand plan. The is only one race, the human race, and that race has come here from the stars, and our own solar system.

Pope John XXIII – Angelo Roncalli – was born in a very poor family of 13 children in Northern Italy. He was priest, bishop, diplomat and Pope. A conservative in doctrine, during his life he frequently reached out to those of other faiths – sometimes called schismatic – and even, the Church would call some perfidious infidels. Not John XXIII, who was horrified by Shoah, and took every step he could to save lives of Jews. Here, we look to his career and actions as Interfaith Mentor.
Many, many people ask, “What is on the other side of death?” The Master replies, “Notice that until now, death and dying have been a taboo subject in your culture. The most important cause of this situation is fear, only fear. Wake up, begin to think and search for yourselves. Do not base your life on somebody else’s theories or their fear.” So begins a far-ranging discussion on life after death, and a surprising promise from the Master!
The Cosmic Sai Baba gives another transmission at Bundanoon, NSW. The Golden Age is foretold, and it will be a little time for the energy to change and align with the Golden Age.

The question is asked about the correct (or proper) relations between pupils and spiritual teachers. Should a pupil give money to the spiritual teacher? What is the proper focus of such a relationship if money is involved? What about those fees for spiritual teachings?
The question arises about the value of reading holy books. What can we get out of them, what purpose do they serve? Do we consult the Master, our Friend, first before reading? Do we seek the opinion of the Master as to what we should read, HOW we should read, and what personal transformation should come from our reading? The Master, your Friend, stands ready to guide you at all times.

The Cosmic Sai Baba gives a transmission at Bundanoon, NSW.

Once upon a time, when the Source took human form, a divine discourse was given. At the end of that discourse, there was a lull in the proceedings. Source returned to the podium, to the microphone and told, “I am a devotee! I am a devotee of all those who are devoted to Me!” Imagine, that this very somebody is just next to you and is ready to present you with His love and everything that He’s got available.
