THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
Cultivate an atmosphere of love and co-operation with one and all, and you can ensure joy for ever more. Do not seek arguments to keep away from others; seek rather ways of working together for the common good. The sense of 'I' and 'mine' scotch love and co-operation. Reduce them to the minimum and then start serving the needy and the distressed. Develop character as well as intelligence and health. The most reliable source of strength is not in money, or kinsmen, or physical acumen, but in yourself, the Atman. Delve deep and draw sustenance from it; see it in all; serve it in all. Discipline is another key trait. Every individual and every nation must learn to control the wild nature of passions and emotions; yielding to them brings only ruin. Discipline, self-control, desire to serve - these are the weapons that even the weakest can use, and win the battle of life.

Yesterday's Thought
 
Date: Wednesday, May 02, 2012
Many kites may fly high in the sky, but they are all lifted and kept high by the same air, the same wind; the kites have no separate will of their own. Pots of water in which the Sun is reflected may be many, but the Sun is one! The very same current runs through and activates all appliances. This is the meaning of the scriptures quote "Ïsaavaasyam idam sarvam" - God is present in everyone in equal measure, nothing more nothing less! Service is best built on this strong foundation of "Thath-Thwam-asi" - That and This are the same; there is only One, there is no other! All help that you give, is help given to yourself; all service is to the Self alone. When another is poor, you cannot be rich. When another is in distress, you cannot have joy. Always remember that help and service that is rendered to the deserving, is done to the Self alone.
- Sri Sathya Sai Baba
