Sai Inspires - 17th September 2009
Whatever form you attribute to Divinity, contemplate on that form. When you worship that form, your mind may waver quite a bit in the beginning. One-pointed focusing of the mind on a particular form is called concentration. When you practice concentration, the wavering of the mind may somewhat reduce. That is the state of contemplation. In contemplation also, there is some wavering of the mind. When the mind becomes totally steady, only then can you call it meditation. Gradually, you forget yourself. That is the super conscious state (samadhi) in which you transcend all forms. Then you will experience the attributeless Divine. -Divine Discourse, 6 July 2009.
Service done to a suffering being reaches the Lord. - Baba

Sai Inspires - 19th September 2009
The entire universe is the creation of God and every being is the embodiment of Divinity, including small insects. Do not observe any differences, as God is present in every being. Do not hate or deride anybody. Do not quarrel with anybody. When you lead your life in such a manner, you will be able to realize your Self. So long as you have ego, you will not be able to understand your reality. When you cut the 'I' from the middle, it becomes a Cross. Cross symbolizes cutting of ego. When you cut your ego, you rise to the level of Divinity. If you have the feeling of "I, Mine and Thine", it will develop duality in you. Duality is not correct. The body has been given to you to lead your life in this world and to discharge your duty. Perform your duty well. Duty is God. Do not observe any differences and consider all as one. -Divine Discourse, July 6, 2009.
Everyone is God's Property. Consider All as One. - Baba

How to Exercise While Sitting at Your Computer?

How to Exercise While Sitting at Your Computer ?
Sitting at the computer all day is not exactly good for the body. If you have to be at a desk all day long, doing some simple things can improve your posture and health.
Steps
1. Sit properly in a good chair designed for desk work. Your back should be straight, shoulders back, and the top of your monitor should be level with your eyes. If you have to look down or up, you need to adjust the height of your screen. If you keep leaning forward, first get your eyesight checked. After a while you will improve your posture and no longer need this restraint.
2. Maintain an ergonomic body posture while typing. Be sure your wrists are slightly lower than your elbows. This will help prevent Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. Keep your legs bent at the knees so that the knees are only slightly higher than your hips. Feet should be flat on the floor or on a step stool of some sort.
3. Stand up every half hour to stretch or walk around a bit.
4. Stretch your calves, and give your eyes a break from focusing on your computer screen. This will also help prevent blood clots from developing in your legs. Blood clots are very common among middle-aged computer users.
5. Learn to stretch. To stretch your neck, flex your head forward/backward, side to side and look right and left. Never roll your head around your neck. This could cause damage to the joints of the neck.
6. Roll your wrists regularly (this will help prevent carpal tunnel syndrome if you spend a lot of time typing).
7. Notice if you tend to hunch in front of the keyboard. To counter that, perform the following exercise: open your arms wide as if you are going to hug someone, rotate your wrists externally (thumbs going up and back) and pull your shoulders back. This stretch is moving your body the opposite way to being hunched and you should feel a good stretch across your upper chest.
8. Contract your abdominal and gluteal muscles, hold them there for a few seconds, then release. Repeat this for every few minutes all day long while you are working at your desk.
9. Stretch your arms, legs, neck and torso while sitting. This will help prevent you from feeling stiff.
10. Take advantage of the downtime created by rebooting or large file downloads to get up and try something more ambitious such as doing a few push-ups, sit-ups, and/or jumping jacks. Beware of your snickering co-workers though.
11. Acquire a hand gripper. They are cheap, small and light. When you have to read something either on the screen or on paper, you probably won't be using your hands very often so squeeze your gripper. It is an excellent forearm workout.
12. Acquire an elastic band (also cheap, small and light) and use it to do the actions mentioned in step 9 (i.e., when stretching your arms, do it by pulling apart the elastic band). You will not only stretch but it will also work the muscles slightly.
13. Take a few deep breaths. If possible, get some fresh air in your lungs.
14. Invest in a large size stability ball or stability ball style desk chair, and sit on it with back straight and abs firm. The actual stability ball is more effective, however the chair is a more viable option for use in an office environment. Sit , bounce or do basic toning exercises while watching TV or talking on the phone as well. Use the actual ball form in moderation when typing, as this is probably not the most supportive seating to prevent carpal tunnel and tendonitis.
15. While sitting, lift up your legs on the balls of your feet and set them down. Repeat these until your legs are comfortably tired. Then repeat it again about 10 minutes later. Do this whole routine for about an hour or so. This will exercise your calves.
16. Have a bottle of water by your side and make a habit of drinking some every half hour. If you do this consistently you will begin to feel more alert and in the long run you will get thinner.
Tips
• Set your chair back rest at an angle wider than 90°.
• Don't neglect the health of your eyes! It is detrimental to your eyesight to focus at one thing for long periods of time (i.e. your monitor) so take breaks to look out the window and focus at something at a further distance away to maintain good ocular health. Also consider purchasing an LCD screen which is easier on the eyes. If you are at your computer screen for long periods of time, optometrists recommend following the "20-20-20" rule--For every 20 minutes spent focusing on your computer screen, spend 20 seconds focusing on something else 20 feet away.
• As long as something is moving, you will be helping to keep yourself in better shape. Constant movement will burn calories and contribute to cardiovascular health. While exercising at your computer is helpful, it is not a substitute for going to the gym or conducting a regular exercise program.
• Don't sit still. Fidgeting is a good way to keep moving. Even something like tapping your foot. But don't make too much noise--however you fidget, the repetitive noises may bother other people.
• Always have water nearby to drink.
• If you're all alone, try shutting off the computer for a bit and exercise. If you're on a cell phone call, get up and do stretches, or leg lifts, anything to keep moving during down time away from the desk.
• Try exercises that combine opposing muscle groups (flexors and extensors, e.g., biceps and triceps) to get a good workout. Clasp your hands together with palms facing each other. Pull up with one hand while pushing down with the other.
• If you are a runner or jogger, you can sit on the floor and stretch as you use the computer. It will save you time too if you have to do both anyway.
• Play music while working to provoke body movement and relieve stress. A smaller instrument will be more convenient.
• Sit on a balance ball while you are working at your desk. You burn calories stabilizing your core and body on the ball. If this doesn't seem possible for work, replace the desk chair at your computer at home.

Swami lovingly explains-What is the importance of time?

What is the importance of time? How should we best utilise it? Swami lovingly explains it and shows the big traps one should avoid through practice. Did you browse the section "Photo Gallery - Glimpses of Gokulam”?
Sai Inspires - 21st September 2009
Do not waste time. At present, you are wasting a lot of time in vain pursuits. In fact, Time is our life. Time is everything. "Kaalaya Namaha, Kaala Kaalaya Namaha" (Worship time, Worship the Lord of Time). If you spend such a valuable time, indulging in vain and unsacred things, how can you get it back? It is only to sanctify this life, God has given you your span of time. If you channelize your thoughts in the right path, your actions will be timely. The time, the action, the cause and the duty should be harmonized. Do not ever leave the sacred path. The path will help you lead a sacred life. You can definitely achieve this. -Divine Discourse, 12 Oct, 2002.
Spiritual practices should lead you to offer your soul to God. - Baba

Bhagwan Sri Satya Sai Baba - 40 Tips For Better Life

40 Tips for Better Life

1. Take a 10-30 minute walk every day. And while you walk, smile. It is the ultimate anti-depressant.

2. Sit in silence for at least 10 minutes each day. Buy a lock if you have to……...

3. Buy a DVR and tape your late night shows and get more sleep.

4. When you wake up in the morning complete the following statement, 'My purpose is to __________ today.' I wake up every morning clapping my hands, saying, “I am fine, I am good, I will overcome all obstacles and make it and God is my witness”.

5. Live with the 3 E's -- Energy, Enthusiasm, and Empathy.

6. Play more games and read more books than you did last year.

7. Make time to practice meditation and prayer everyday. They provide us with daily fuel for our busy lives. Baba said, “it’s better to pray then being a prey to the society”.

8. Spend time with people over the age of 70 and under the age of 6.

9. Dream more while you are awake and have dreamless sleep.

10. Eat more food that grow on trees and plants and eat less food that is manufactured in plants. Try to be a vegetarian if possible.

11. Drink green tea and plenty of water. Eat blueberries, broccoli, almonds & walnuts.

12. Try to make at least three people smile each day.

13. Clear clutter from your house, your car, your desk and let new and flowing energy into your life.

14. Don't waste your precious energy on gossip, energy vampires (blood suckers), issues of the past, negative thoughts or things you cannot control. Instead invest your energy in the positive present moment.

15. Realize that life is a school and you are here to learn. Problems are simply part of the curriculum that appear and fade away like algebra class but the lessons you learn will last a lifetime.

16. Eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince and dinner like a college kid with a maxed out charge card or a begger.

17. Smile and laugh more. It will keep the energy vampires away.

18. Life isn't fair, but it's still good. Enjoy it.

21. You don't have to win every argument. Agree to disagree.

22. Make peace with your past so it won't spoil the present.

23. Don't compare your life to others'. You have no idea what their journey is all about.

24. No one is in charge of your happiness except you. Fall in love with yourselves first and become a magnet that constantly attracts others to you.

26. Forgive everyone for everything.

27. What other people think of you is none of your business.

28. Time heals almost everything.

29. However good or bad a situation is, it will change.

30. Your job won't take care of you when you are sick. Your good friends will…….Stay in touch.

32. Envy is a waste of time. You already have all you need.

33. The best is yet to come.

34. No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up.

35. Do the right thing!

36. Call your family often. Love your family and forget all the petty arguments instantly.

37. Each night before you go to bed complete the following statements: I am thankful to God for __________. Today I accomplished _________.

38. Remember that you are too blessed to be stressed.

39. Enjoy the ride. Remember this is not Disney World and you certainly don't want a fast pass. You only have one ride through life so make the most of it and enjoy the ride.

40. Please Forward this to all your friends.

May your troubles be less,

May your blessings be more,

May nothing but happiness come through your door! Jai Sai Ram.
