Satsang ATTACHMENT (from Sai Leela Magazine August 1976)

ATTACHMENT
There was a goldsmith in a certain village. He was sick and
bedridden for a long time. As such inspite of anxiety he was
unaware about the market-position of gold. Once the end
was to grasp him. The learned physician attended him as he
had hyper-pyrexia ' i. e. high body temperature. Gazing at
the thermometer the doctor murmured temperature" is 105"
[ i. e. the body temperature was 105° F] The goldsmith who
was thinking about market-price of gold per-tola heard these
words from the doctor 1. e. '* is '105' Immediately the
goldsmith who was on the verge of death, ordered his son
standing near by :
"Sell and dispose off all the gold now. We had purchased it
at the rate of eighty. Now it is 105."
And with these words, alas, the goldsmith crossed the ultimate
end of life and died.
It is a world-wide accepted fact that whatsover we have
sought for during the whole of our life, the same wish and
desire strikes our mind at the hour of death.
The next birth mainly depends upon this very desire. Let
our mind therefore be directed to the holy-lotus feet of
God SRI SAI BABA. He will positively relieve us from
these sort of rebirths. Then we may be a part and participle
of His ever flourshing feet in next birth.
