THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
In the Prahaladha story, consider the emergence of the Lord from a pillar. The significance of the destruction of the pillar is a prelude to the manifestation of the Lord. The illusion relating to the body must be destroyed for the Divine to manifest Himself. The body is no doubt essential up to a point; it is for the performance of right actions and to discover the secret underlying all action. Do not give room for the waywardness of the mind. Purify your mind and direct it towards the righteous path. In the spiritual field there is no royal highway or shortcuts. The path is narrow and straight, and the goal is infinitely precious. Crowds swarm a fish market but only a few go to a diamonds shop. The road to God is for the genuine spiritual aspirants. (Divine Discourse, Dec 25, 1994)

Yesterday's Thought
The most important requisite for people in the world is truth based on noble thoughts. True thoughts constitute the real, proper wealth. The absence of good thoughts weakens the will power. With a weak will, one can not accomplish even simple things. To achieve anything worthwhile in life you must strengthen your willpower. Your bad or good fortune is related directly to your thoughts. Sowing the seed of thoughts you reap the fruit known as Karma (deeds). Sowing the seed of Karma, you then reap the fruit called practice (Abhyaasa). From Abhyaasa, you reap the fruit of character (Sheela). From Sheela you reap the fruit of good fortune (Adrushtam). Thus fortune is based on character, which is based on good practices arising out of good deeds based on good thoughts. Thus with the development of good thoughts, one's good fortune will also grow. (Divine Discourse, Dec 25, 1994)
