Divine Analogies - Lessons from Nature - Volume 3 - Five Elements

"Nature is your school, your laboratory, the gateway to liberation, and the panorama of God's majesty. Seek to know the lessons it is ready to teach," said Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba, reminding the human folk of the importance of Mother Nature. Taking a cue from the Lord of Sathya Yuga, man should evolve, watching, following and learning lessons from Mother Nature. Bhagawan said, "You need not wander in search of a guru. Learn lessons from every living being and everything that you find around."
