Sai Inspires from Prasanthi Nilayam June 03, 2016

Is Mahabharata a fantasy war of the past? Why is it relevant to us in the


present time as well? Bhagawan lovingly reminds us today.

It is said that King Dhritarashtra asked a question and described


the battlefield of Kurukshetra as Dharmakshetra, field of virtue
(The Gita begins with King Dhritarashtra asking what his sons
and the Pandavas are doing in Kurukshetra). Referring to his
sons he says, 'Mamaka' that is, those to whom I am bound by
attachment. Dhritarashtra, in his ignorance, asked a question
which really means, what are the thamo and rajo gunas (slothful
and passionate qualities), represented by the Kauravas, doing in
the battlefield with the Pandavas who representsattvic
gunas (pure qualities). This battle is continually being waged, in
the body which is the true Dharmakshetra, in Kurukshetra which
symbolises the sensory organs. And Lord Krishna in the form of
the consciousness or Atma is a witness to this battle all the time.
- Summer Roses On Blue Mountains, 1976, Ch 3

Service expresses the Divinity hidden in a human being. It broadens one's heart, destroys narrowmindedness and gives delight. The evil qualities and tendencies in us can be driven away through
service. Baba
