We do meditation, spiritual practices in this temporary body. Though this body is temporary, you have to use temporary things to realize the Truth.
Sathya Sai BabaPeople should remain unaffected by what others may say. A true man is one who overcomes the ups and downs of life with fortitude. One should not recoil before reverses of fortunes. One should bravely face them and overcome them.
Sathya Sai BabaYou are the Atma. You are permanent. The physical is not permanent. The physical is not the Atma.
Sathya Sai BabaYou must enshrine in your hearts the spiritual urge towards light and love, Wisdom and Bliss!
Sathya Sai BabaIn the beginning you can think, "The world is like a stage. I am only an actor. God is the director. All are His instruments, all are just acยญtors. He is directing everything." But do not always remain at that level. Move on. Think, "I am the unยญchanging Atma, not this changing personality and body."
