As far as it lies in your power, do good to others. Do not sow fear in other's hearts; do not inflict pain on others; do not promote anxiety or grief. If you take pleasure in the pain of others, you only scotch the divinity in you and bring to light the demonic nature. The Lord is present in all. He is in you, as much as He is in the others, whom you are trying to harm. Know this and give up all the efforts to ruin others. The inner reality is the same in you as it is in the 'other'.

- Sathya Sai Speaks,  Vol 5, Ch 5, 20-Feb-65 

"The Lord cares for the sincerity, not the imitation. Let your yearning be sincere, the result is certain." - Baba
