Sai Madhuryam



When man comes out of the mother's womb, 
he does not bring any money with him. 
Money does not follow him either 
when he departs from the world. 
Even a millionaire has to partake of salt and rice. 
He cannot swallow gold to satiate his hunger. 
One may feel proud of his wealth, 
but he cannot take even a single pie with him 
when he leaves the world. 
Just as man enjoys the honey collected by the bees, 
the wealth one amasses may ultimately fall 
in the hands of either donga (thief) or dora (king). 

~ Sri Sathya Sai Baba ~
