Hold on to God, and leave everything to God’s Master plans. Whatever is due to you, whatever you deserve to receive will definitely become yours. He who deserves, get everything that is due. He who does not deserve, loses what he already has! If you invest absolute faith in God, He takes care of all your needs for you, and that includes your entire family’s needs too.

The One who Loves you can never hate you. That is how Siva Shankar Baba is. Regardless of whether people accept me or not, I continue doing only good to the society, because Love is what I am comprised of. Love is my nature.

Have you watched how harvesting is done? The farmers cut the crops with sickles, place the grains in a huge pile, and after pounding the grains, shake them in a sieve to cast away the husk and retain the rice grains alone.

Similarly, when people scorn me, it only means they are casting themselves away like the husk in the analogy. The rice grains that hold on, stay with me unto eternity. So neither do I lose by someone’s criticism nor do I long for any praise. I have gone beyond illusions and attained the One who is capable of freeing us from illusions. Nothing else is left for me to attain. Which is why I do not attach any importance to anything of the world.

I have only Love and I cannot hate.
