In the Study Circle, whatever we listen and assimilate in the mind should be distributed to others.
In that way we show gratitude for what we have receded.
We should not listen and keep it to ourselves only for our benefit. Whatever we hear and practise should also be distributed to society at large, such gratitude is very important for man. If one does not have gratitude, he leads the life of an animal. Even a dog shows gratitude if you give a little rice.
In the Sathya Sai Organisation, keeping this in mind, we should maintain unity and help the world.
Other organisations may not know the inner meaning of this, but in our organisation we should know the inner meaning and we should practise it, otherwise it is of no use. You should therefore be an ideal to others.
In the study circle you can learn a lot of things, but the most important thing to be learnt is your own true nature --your Atmathathwa. Learning all about external things without knowing your real self is like studying the branches of a tree, ignoring its roots. There are many fruits on the tree. We can see the fruits. What happens if you water those fruits? They will fall down. But if you water the roots down below, the tree flourishes and will give fruits which can be enjoyed. You have to develop self-knowledge and self-confidence and then only you can help others. (Baba)
