Samastha Lokaah Sukhino Bhavantu

Do we understand the fact that Bhagawan loves to Love All & Serve All…by Helping Ever, Hurting Never… These maxims sum up the whole of Bhagawan’s teachings. In a world that is plunged head-long into materialism, man should not lose his hope, but should strive with more vigour and unflinching faith to achieve his goal – humanity’s collective goal… Sai Rama Rajya… a world of Truth and Righteousness… Sathya Sai Is The Answer… and ‘Samastha Lokah…’ is the tool for today’s problems… Commemorating the grand occasion of the birth of the Cosmic Maha Mantra, that emanated from Bhagawan on August 31, 2008, …a poetic supplication from Sri Jullie Chaudhuri echoing Bhagawan’s message of “Samastha Lokah….”

If we have to live a life that pleases You, Sweet Mother Sai,
We earnestly need to chant: ‘Samastha Lokah Sukhino Bhavantu’,
Peace for all beings,
For all are dear to You,
Peace for all beings,
For all belong to You,
This prayer pleases You immensely,
So let us chant it incessantly,
For life should be lived to please only You…
‘Samastha Lokah Sukhino Bhavantu’,
Takes one from ‘I’ to ‘We’ to finally You,
Samastha Lokah gives to all their due,
Bequeathed upon us by You, our Cherished God and Guru,
Thus,
Samastha Lokah is US,
Universal Seva,
For each and every Jeeva,
That shimmering ray of Divine Grace,
A Cosmic Embrace,
A comprehensive prayer encompassing every being,
Beaming and then berthing,
Gurgling and gushing,
Refreshingly birthing,
Instilling,
A spirit of camaraderie,
Invoking a solidarity,
A vivacious vitality,
Re-infusing a long sought harmony
Embracing the five elements,
And the five human values too,
Beyond religion, caste, colour, creed,
Country, planet, space and time,
Selfless and true,
‘Samastha Lokah Sukhino Bhavantu’,
Care for life,
Concern for nature,
Reverence for all beings the Cosmos through,
…And wholesome love that does every atom imbue,
‘Samastha Lokah Sukhino Bhavantu’,
Peace for all beings in the Universe,
For all are dear to You,
Peace for all beings in the Universe,
Beloved Mother Sai…
For along with me…all belong to You…
