THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
Prayer is the very breath of religion; for, it brings man and God nearer and nearer to each other. Meditation (dhyana) is the process of listening to the Song Celestial, the flute of Krishna, with the mental ears alert on the melody. Just as every day you engage in exercises and consume tonics, calculating the intake of calories and vitamins, paying meticulous attention to the nutritional value of the food, pay attention also to the intake of impressions into the mind, whether they debilitate or strengthen, whether they add to the power of resistance of the mind against the viruses - greed, envy, hatred, pride, malice, etc. Have a meal of good acts of service, divine thoughts, and drink the juice of Love (Prema rasa), so that they may be washed down, and digested well. Then, you can be shining in mental health, happiness and wholesomeness.
- Sri Sathya Sai Baba
(Divine Discourse, Oct 6, 1970)

Yesterday's thought 
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)
