THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
The Universe is a university in which everyone is a student. While you are free to choose any subject you like and acquire degrees in a regular college, in the spiritual field everyone must complete the basic course of the five special subjects and obtain the degree of Divine Love. They are described as the '5Ds' - Dedication, Devotion, Discipline, Discrimination and Determination. Only those who have mastered the five 'Ds' are qualified to receive God's Love. Devotion is not merely singing bhajans or performing puja. True devotion is free from selfishness of all sorts and must not be proclaimed or demonstrated. It is an expression of love from within. You must constantly and lovingly contemplate on God, worship Him and do penance for Him. Service to the Lord is the highest expression of devotion. There is nothing that is not attainable through loving service to the Divine. (My Dear Students, Vol 2,Ch 10, Jan 16, 1988)

YESTERDAY'S THOUGHT
God has gifted to every one of you the expensive and precious heart. It is enough if there is even a little bit of pure, untainted eternal and selfless love in your heart. If you have the slightest gratitude for having the gift of life it is sufficient to redeem your life. Hearts devoid of love and gratitude are indeed barren. Aspire to cultivate this valuable and precious gift of the heart. Many pray, "Oh God, give me the energy and capability to experience Divinity and live in accordance with your command". You pray, thinking that you do not have that strength. This is incorrect. Each and every one of you are already bestowed with that strength! You do not need anything more. You are unable to appreciate it because your vision is not focused on that. You must search and enquire within you as to what your aspirations and goals are. Then sincerely work towards experiencing it.- Divine Discourse, 'My Dear Students', Vol 3, Ch 4, Jun 21, 1989
-Sri Sathya Sai Baba
