THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
The entire visible universe is a cosmic university. At birth, people are akin to animals. Then, parents teach the child how to develop its human faculties. If parents do not undertake this task adequately, the child will remain an animal. The great sages and saints felt that it was not enough to develop the human qualities alone, and therefore envisaged a system of Cultural Training (Samskaras) for the spiritual development of the child. What is Samskara? It is systems of practice by which the bad tendencies in a human being are got rid of and good tendencies are inculcated. They are intended to transform the outward looking tendency (Pravritti) into inward looking tendency (Nivritti). Samskaras also assist in developing human qualities and eliminating all remnants of animal nature in human beings. (Divine Discourse, "My Dear Students", Vol 2, Ch 8, June 15, 1989)

YESTERDAY'S THOUGHT
At times, your mind becomes a monkey, a mad monkey, jumping and bumping all over. It might be difficult to control your mind. In those moments, tell yourself, "I am not a monkey; I am part of 'mankind'." You must have and exhibit kindness from within you. Cultivate love and develop kindness. All of you must start the day with love, fill the day will love and end the day with love. This is the way to God. Always be happy. There should not be anyone with castor-oil faces. You must lead a happy life and be cheerful always. Not just on your birthday should you be happy, you must lead your life in happiness all the time. When you have love for God, you will not do things that God does not approve of. So, your life will always be happy. Follow God, live in Love and Truth. Then you will attain true happiness and enjoy bliss. (Divine Discourse, "My Dear Students", Vol 1, Ch 7, Apr 10, 2000)

YESTERDAY'S THOUGHT
The Gopikas lived their lives, doing everything as God's work. They would get up early in the morning, and chant the name of Krishna even as they put curd in the pot. Then as they began churning curds, they would continuously utter the many names of Lord Krishna. Chanting Krishna's name was like the Shruthi (musical scale), their jingling bangles became the rhythm, the sound of churning was the pitch and what they uttered became a mellifluous song. Where did the butter they churned come from? It came from the curds, though it was not visible in the beginning. Just like one can get butter out of milk, with effort you too who have come from God must merge in Him. Understand this principle well and you can experience Him anywhere and everywhere, all the time. (Divine Discourse, "My Dear Students", Vol 3, Ch 2, March 19, 1998)

YESTERDAY'S THOUGHT
Look at a beautiful building. How is it strong? It has walls, which gives it support. But how do the walls get the support? There is a foundation beneath it. The walls are able to stand strong because the foundation is solid. What is the use of the walls and foundation without a roof? You can live in a place, only when there is a roof. So too, to lead a happy life and accomplish Self-Realization, you must have Self-confidence as the foundation, Self-satisfaction as the walls and Self-sacrifice as your roof. So first and foremost, develop Self-confidence. Where there is faith, there is love. Where there is love, there is peace. Where there is peace, there is truth. Where there is truth, there is bliss. Where there is bliss, there is God. And where there is God, there is everything. Never forget this principle and develop Self-confidence. (Divine Discourse, "My Dear Students", Vol 1, Ch 7, Apr 10, 2000)

YESTERDAY'S THOUGHT
Some people ask, "If we spend all the time praying to God, then who will do our jobs? How can we run our family?" I will show you a very easy way - do your job, thinking that the job also belongs to God. Do not keep your mind on it thinking it is 'my job'. Think that all the actions that you do, you are doing it for God. Offer everything at His Feet. Believe and tell yourself, "Whatever I am doing, I am doing it out of love for God". Then, you need not give up anything. Face the examinations and do your work in a spirit of total devotion and dedication. When you do all your work as God's work, then you will get the right reward. Never think, "This is my work and that is God's work"; such mindset will deprive you of the right rewards. Realize that everything is God's work. (Divine Discourse, "My Dear Students", Vol 3, Ch 2, March 19, 1998.)
