THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
True and Selfless Love manifests as sacrifice. Such love knows no hatred. It envelops the entire universe, and is capable of drawing near even those who are seemingly far away. In the phenomenal world, you come across many shades and derivatives of this primordial love. You love your father, mother, brother, sister, spouse, friends and others. In all such cases, there is always a tinge of selfishness somewhere or the other. Divine love, on the other hand, is totally free of even the slightest trace of selfishness. You must surrender to such love, become completely submerged by it, and experience the bliss it confers. True and Selfless Love manifests itself as sacrifice. For acquiring Divine love, the quality of Kshama (forbearance and patience) is a vital necessity. Every individual must cultivate this noble quality. (Divine Discourse, May 25, 2000)

Yesterday's thought
A person's life may be compared to a stalk of sugar cane. Like the cane, which is hard and has many knots, life is full of difficulties. But these difficulties must be overcome to enjoy the bliss of the Divine, just as the sugarcane has to be crushed and its juice converted into jaggery to enjoy the permanent sweetness of jaggery. Enduring bliss can be got only by overcoming trials and tribulations. Gold cannot be made into an attractive jewel without it being subjected to the process of melting in a crucible and being beaten into the required shape. When Bhagawan address devotees as Bangaaru (Golden one), He is considering you as very precious. Go through the vicissitudes of life with forbearance and become attractive jewels. Do not allow yourself to be overwhelmed by obstacles. Lead exemplary lives with self-confidence and firm faith in God. (Divine Discourse, Jan 15, 1992)
