Was Reading The Gospel of Holy Mother ( Sri Sarada Devi, wife of Sri Ramakrishna Paramhansha ) In the book was mention of how the mother prayed to the Master ( Sri Ramakrishna) to take away the ability to find faults in others, and she attained it. I opened up a document of Golden words of holy Mother and the following quote came up."I tell you one thing. If you want peace of mind, do not find fault with others. Rather see your own faults. Learn to make the whole world your own. No one is a stranger, my child; the whole world is your own."
This reminded the story of Sai Baba in Shirdi found in Sai SatCharitra. Once it so happened that a Bhakta of Sai Baba, reviled another behind his back, before other people. On leaving aside merits, he dwelt on the faults of his brother, and spoke so sarcastically, that the hearers were disgusted. This happened in the sacred
Sai Baba pointed out that even the sacred
It also reminds me of my favorite How to Love God by Meher Baba, quote from it goes
“If, instead of seeing faults in others, we look within ourselves, we are loving God. “

I think if everybody learn from this & start thinking like this, this world wil become most beautiful & peaceful place for every human being.......... Infact people should apply teachings of Sai baba in their daily life & they will be able to see the results, how happy there life will become :)
Yes Richa,
Indeed world will become most beautiful, if everybody on the earth put this in practice in daily life, just watch out for the faults in own self and not in others. And this one thing can bring about great revolution in our and our surroundings if we are aware of this single thing, and we get much closer to our beloved Sai Baba.
Thanx Alpesh for getting us back to our roots. It's so true, we all crave for peace in our day to day lives and at times unintentionally we end up finding faults in others. If we all start looking within ourselves first rather than pointing others, then our lives will become more meaningful.Om sai Ram
Thanks, Alpesh, for this excellent message. While reading the post, one could sharply recall the words of both the Holy Mother and Shirdi Baba.
John 5:22 goes: The Father makes no judgment, but hath committed all judgment unto the son.
By nipping the thought (of finding fault with others) in the bud, one can aspire to be more like the Father, so full of Love.

One should try to love each nd every person on this earth coz all the human beings have a heart and a soul. and in all the souls , lies within is our divine BABA .and our BABA is to be loved always nd by all OM SAI RAM.
