Sai Inspires 8th September 2008 ( How can we not be carried away by the unfolding of "Maya" in our day to day lives?)

Let us take a cycle or a car tyre. If a small pin is pierced in that tyre, all the air inside it will be released. While all the air that is in the tyre goes out under such conditions, your body, which has nine big holes in it can always hold life in it without leaking out. Everything is held together by God's strength. God is present everywhere. You are only a means through which God is seeing everyone in this world. You are imagining that you are seeing with your eyes, but you are, in fact, seeing with God's eyes. This world is full of God and everything that you see is God.

Cobalah kita lihat ban sepeda atau ban mobil. Jikalau kita menggunakan sebuah pin kecil dan mencoloknya ke pentil ban tersebut, maka semua udara yang ada di dalamnya akan bocor. Nah, apabila semua udara yang ada di dalam ban itu mengalami kebocoran dengan cara demikian; jikalau diperbandingkan dengan badan jasmanimu - yang notabene memiliki sembilan lubang - namun terlihat bahwa ia tetap sanggup untuk menyimpan kehidupan di dalamnya tanpa mengalami "kebocoran" sama sekali. Berkat kekuatan Tuhan-lah hal itu dapat terjadi. Tuhan eksis dimana-mana. Melalui dirimu, Tuhan melihat setiap orang di dunia ini. Sebenarnya daya kekuatan penglihatanmu adalah berkat kekuatan-Nya. Sang Ilahi menyelimuti segala-galanya di alam semesta ini.

- Divine Discourse, Summer Showers 19, 1973.
