"To save
humanity, the Lord appeared in a most charming form so that He
could draw everyone’s heart in love. So Lord Krishna easily
steals into the hearts of even the most hard-hearted
individuals. He is the 'bada
chitta chor' (the greatest Thief of hearts).
Pure hearts yearn for His voice, His Form, His flute, His
smile, His sport and His pranks. That is the penance (tapas) which
is rewarded by His grace. Krishna incarnated to establish Dharma (righteousness).
So what he likes the most is Dharma. Walk in the
path of Dharma; that
is the offering He will gladly accept. The Lord is closest to
you, He is the mother, father, teacher, friend, guide and
guardian. Call on Him, and He responds immediately. From dawn
to dusk, spend every minute in His company. The Flute is His
favourite. So become a flute, hollow (devoid of desires),
straight (with no crookedness), and He will redeem
you!"
Sathya Sai Baba

announcing at the centre for the last month, Region 4 is

is a Nationwide activity run every year by Marine Conservation
Society and Waitrose and this year we are joining them at Cley
Beach, Blakeney Point,Holt, Norfolk.
We will be cleaning
up a section of the beach from 10am - 12pm and then enjoy a picnic
on the beach and aim to leave by 5pm.
We have organised a
coach and the response has been great, so at the moment places are
full. But we have a reserve list, so if you would like to
join us then please contact a centre coordinator straight away

"All that is beautiful and great in nature –
the lofty mountains, the vast oceans, the stars in the sky –
must be regarded as proclaiming the glory and power of the Divine.
The entire universe must be considered as the temple of God" ~
Sathya Sai Baba
"Nature is Godʹs vesture. The Universe is
the “university” for man. Man should treat nature with
reverence." ~ Sathya Sai Baba
