THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
The Vedas taught two kinds of dharma (codes of right conduct). One is termed pravrithi (outward path) and the other is termed nivrithi (inward path). Pravrithi is related to worldly activities; it prescribes the qualities needed for leading the life in the mundane world. Nivrithi teaches knowledge of the Self (Atma-jnana). One who knows the difference between the two is dauntless. For example, when one is hungry, Pravrithi tells one to eat food and appease the hunger. Nivrithi reminds what kind of food one should eat, what is good for one's health and what is injurious, and how it should be consumed. All conflicts begin from your mind; it is Pravrithi that generates conflict, brings about union and separation. Ayodhya (a-yodhya) means a place free from strife and controversy; no enemy could enter it. The human heart is the symbol of Ayodhya. (Divine Discourse, Apr 5, 1998)

YESTERDAY'S THOUGHT
Rama's name is a life-giving essence with esoteric significance. It consists of three syllables: Ra + Aa + Ma. The combination of the three letters constitute the name 'Rama'. Ra representing Agni (the Fire God), burns away all sins; Aa representing Surya (the Sun God), dispels the darkness of ignorance; and Ma representing Chandra (the Moon God), cools one's temper and produces tranquility. The name Rama has the triple power of washing away one's sins, removing one's ignorance, and tranquilizing one's mind. How can this profound meaning of the name Rama be imparted to mankind? This can be done only by the Divine coming in human form and demonstrating to mankind the power of the Divine. Rama was one who, while appearing to lead the life of an ordinary man, led the Life Divine. He demonstrated the ideal life of a spiritually realised person. (Divine Discourse, Apr 5, 1998)
-Sri Sathya Sai Baba
