"Love for the Divine is devotion. Devotion is not something objective and concrete. It is an inner
experience which springs from the heart. As you think, so you become. Hence, the heart must be
filled with good feelings. The senses must be engaged in good actions. When the eyes are turned
towards God, all creation appears Divine. When you wear the fight kind of spectacles, you see
everything clearly. But if the glasses are not correct, you get a distorted picture and your eyes are
spoilt. Likewise, if your heart is filled with love of God, all your feelings are sanctified by that
love. Other undesirable thoughts drop away. Devotees pray to the Lord to come and reside in
their pure and tranquil hearts. Where the heart is impure them is no room for God."
~ Sathya Sai Baba ~
(Divine Discourse - 9.1.1988)
