THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
Today while Science is making rapid strides, morally people are going down. Selfishness and self-interest dominate every one of the many activities. The unlimited proliferation of desires is the root cause of people's misery and ruination. If you follow two main principles, you can reach the goal of human life: Sarva jiva namaskaaram Keshavam prathi gachathi - the reverence shown to every being reaches God. Sarva jiva thiraskaaram Keshavam prathi gachathi - similarly, insult to any beings amounts to insulting God. Understand and internalize the Omnipresence of the Lord. In the Gita, Krishna declares that sacrificing the fruits of your actions is the best and easiest way of realizing God. Sacrifice (Thyaga) is the only means of attaining liberation. Serve the society, help the poor and needy in distress, and manifest the human quality of compassion.  
- Sri Sathya Sai Baba
(Divine Discourse, Sep 4, 1994)

Yesterday's thought       
What exactly is Truth? Is it the description of a 'thing seen' as one has seen it, without exaggeration or under-statement? No. Or, the narration of an incident in the same word as one has heard it narrated? No. Truth elevates; it holds forth ideals; it inspires the individual and society. It is the Light that illumines one's path to God. A life inspired by Truth will enable man to live as man - not degrade oneself to the status of a lower species. There is God everywhere and there is no second entity. God is the Truth, the only Truth. God is in every article or thing, as the basis, as understanding and understandability, as the source of Divine light, as Atma. Truth is the One Awareness, the One Divine Energy that activates every living being, nay, every particle of matter.
 - Sri Sathya Sai Baba
