THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
The ascend to a human form has been made possible for you all; but you will truly be deserving of this high status among the animals, only by finally merging in the Divine. That is the goal which the pilgrimage of evolution has in view since life began on earth as the amoeba on the waters. Faith in that goal and steady march towards it, are the signs of one being aware of the responsibility of being a human. The Call of the Divine echoes in every heart; it provokes the reaction of awe, reverence, affection, love and sacrifice - all ingredients of devotion (bhakthi). It translates itself into acts of worship, of praise, of adoration and of rituals. The mind through these means gets saturated with divine thoughts and is recast in the divine mould, until the flow of bliss (Aananda) is unabated.
- Sri Sathya Sai Baba
(Divine Discourse, Oct 6, 1970)

Yesterday's thought  
Arjuna entered the battlefield, fully equipped and fanatically determined to destroy his enemies. But, when he stood on the battlefield in the chariot driven by Lord Krishna, he saw 'my teachers', 'my grandfather', 'my kinsmen' and 'my cousins'. He was moved so much by this sense of 'I' and 'mine' that he discarded the bow and desired to return, poor and beaten. The 'I' has really nothing to do with earthly possessions, but being deluded he identified himself with earthly relationships. This is the moha (delusion) from which he was saved, through the Bhagavad Gita. Be unmoved by duality; that is the lesson. Let not defeat or success affect your inner calm. See yourself as your Self, unrelated to others or to the objective world. When you know your true Self, you are liberated: that is Moksha.
- Sri Sathya Sai Baba
