THOUGHT FOR THE DAY AS WRITTEN AT PRASANTHI NILAYAM TODAY Date: Thursday, September 19, 2013 THOUGHT FOR THE DAY   A devotee of Hanuman was once driving a cartload of grain to the market. On the way, one wheel got stuck and the cart could not be drawn forward. The cart slanted too, and a few bags fell on the ground. The devotee sat on the cart and started praying to Hanuman. He completed chanting the 108 names and even the 1008 names. When nothing happened, he started blaming the Lord and reviling Him for not rescuing him. Hanuman then appeared and took him to task! "Young man, instead of doing your duty by applying your strength on the job, you sat there, prayed and started reviling Me!" Come on, put your shoulder to the wheel and lift it up chanting My name! First contribute self-effort," said the Lord. You must use all the talents awarded to you in a prayerful and humble mood. Until then, you have no right to seek the help and intervention of the Lord.   ~ Sri Sathya Sai Baba   -------------SBOI------------- www.saibabaofindia.com "SBOI"         Date: Wednesday, September 18, 2013 Yesterday's thought            Your duty (Karma) has to be done righteously (in dharma). Those dominated by ignorance (Thamas) do their duty solely for the sake of the fruits thereof and they resort to all sorts of subterfuges in order to gain the results they desire. For this category of people, the end justifies the means. Those dominated by passion (Rajas) are proud and pompous, and boast that they are the doers, the benefactors and the experiencers. Those dominated by qualities of calm serenity (Sathwa) do their duties regardless of the fruits thereof and leave the result to the Lord. They will not worry whether it leads to success or failure, ever conscious of their duties and never of their rights. As a matter of fact, there is more joy in the actual doing, than in the result that accrues. This attitude must be the experience of every true seeker.   ~ Sri Sathya Sai Baba -------------SBOI------------- www.saibabaofindia.com "SBOI"         Join Us on Facebook Just a reminder, if you are on Facebook then you should join our Sai Ram Facebook-page.
