Date: Sunday, May 13, 2012 THOUGHT FOR THE DAY As the carpenter shapes the wood, the blacksmith moulds the iron and the goldsmith creates beautiful ornaments out of gold, the Lord too shapes every being in His own way. Know that the Lord is the basis for the existence of every being in this Universe. With this knowledge lose all fear. Exercise discrimination at all times and use the spiritual wisdom you possess, to your advantage. The tiny sparrow sits on the storm tossed bough, because it knows that its wings are strong. It does not depend upon the swaying branch to sustain it. Similarly fully rely on the grace of God, earn it and keep it. Then whatever be the magnitude of the calamity you face, you can survive it without any harm.   - Sri Sathya Sai Baba   Yesterday's thought   Date: Saturday, May 12, 2012 The great child devotee, Prahlada, knew the truth that this entire world is filled with God. So when the Lord appeared before him and was eager to grant him a boon, he asked not for long life, wealth or fame but to assuage the pain and sorrow of all beings. Prahlada knew that God was manifest as every being in this Universe and serving God was to serve those manifestations and give them relief and joy. So too your tongue must justify its presence by sweet soothing words, and your hand by soft and harmless acts. The body must be spent in upa-vaasa, meaning doing acts that take you nearer to God. True Upavasa on holy days means not mere fasting, it connotes that all your thoughts, deeds and words on that day, must be about God, you should spend the day 'near' Him, ín Him, and for Him. - Sri Sathya Sai Baba
