THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
When you want breeze, you start the fan; when you want light, you switch on the lamp; when you want to cook, you light the stove; when you want to address a vast audience, you arrange a mike and loudspeakers and switch them on. If it is printing you require, you operate the printer with a knob. Consider these as separate operations and you will notice that they are unrelated to one another. Light and air, heat and sound, are unconnected; they are distinct in every way, it would seem. But for all these, the Kartha, the energizer, is the same - the electric current. The expressions and manifestations may be different; but the basis, the inspiration, the latent potency, or the base is the same. Like electricity, God too operates through all instruments, and awards the consequences of all the activities done by everyone; He is the inner motivator of all beings.

Yesterday's thought
 
Date: Wednesday, May 23, 2012
When you try to cook a meal, you may have with you all the materials you need – rice, dal (lentils), salt, lime, spices, vegetables, etc. But unless you have fire to cook these, the dish cannot be prepared. So too, all forms of worship, contemplation, yoga or meditation are ineffective if the knowledge of one's basic Reality and Identity is not there to warm up the process. The Atma is the source and spring of all joy and peace; this has to be cognised and dwelt upon. Without this realisation, human life is an opportunity that is lost. Awareness of one's true identity is the sign of wisdom, the lighting of the lamp which scatters darkness.
