Immortality

A Poem of Sathya Sai Baba

Children of Immortality,

remember that you are created

In my image and likeness. Perfect.
Live up to this image,
in every way, in all planes.
Live like Masters!

Walk this earth with your heads held high,

Your spirits soaring...,
your hearts open to Love...

And believe in yourself and God within you.

Then all will go well.

Earth is but a manifestation of My Being,
made out of My Life!

Wherever you look, I am there.
Wherever you walk, I am there.

Whomsoever you contact,
I am that person.
I am in each, in all My Splendour.

See Me everywhere, 
talk to Me and love Me, who am in each.

Then from each,
I will respond and bring you into Glory.

You cannot see Me in one place and not in another,
for I fill all space.
You cannot escape Me or do anything in secret,
for there are no secrets with Me.

Live... Live... Live... in perfect accordance
With My laws, and wonders will ensue.
Think now.
Does error clog the free flowing Essence
of My Being through you?

Ask Me this moment to reveal to you your errors
In the silence of your meditation.
Let old memories well up in you,
from My subconscious in you...

Old patterns..., 
old forgotten feelings and thoughts.
Now plunge them into the Ocean of Light,
burn them from the consciousness

So that you may be true emblems of My Being.

Right now, Visualize My burning flame
rising higher and higher as it burns through you.

It is a flame that is cooling, cleansing and healing,

That soothes the hidden sorrow...,
and leaves you calmed and quiet.

Rest in my Love. 
Let all that you have been through
In your many lives up to this day,
melt away in My redeeming Light.

Children of My Being,
dissolve your sorrows and fears in Me.
Let me efface all your karma.

Come back into My Consciousness,

which is your own true Consciousness.

Let your petty human self fade away,
right now, as you come to Me, 
who am your Inner Self.

You are now My radiant glorious Self..,
no longer separate from Me.
Melt with Me... 
Merge with Me...,
become Me
