THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
For a person living in the materialistic world, the sensual pleasures are a source of extreme delight. However, the senses themselves are temporary, and hence grant only transitory joy. To a person suffering from jaundice, everything looks yellow and tastes bitter. So too senses fraught with illness cannot give true happiness. As there is no person without desire, and it is difficult to live without desire in this world, Lord Krishna came out with an excellent solution. He said, "Perform all actions for the pleasure of the Lord without an eye on the fruits of the action." Pay your respect to duty and dedicate all actions to the Divine. Ensure you do all actions to the satisfaction of your conscience and then your heart is free from all blemishes. Such an action qualifies to become an act of Anapeksha, not tainted by desire.
- Sri Sathya Sai Baba

Yesterday's thought  
The supreme Shakti manifests Herself in the form of Durga, Lakshmi and Saraswathi. Durga grants us energy - physical, mental and spiritual. Lakshmi bestows on us wealth - not just money but intellectual wealth, the wealth of character, goodness and health. Health is also wealth! Saraswati bestows on us intelligence, the capacity for intellectual enquiry and the power of discrimination. Hence, Navaratri (nine-nights) festival is celebrated in order to proclaim to the world the power of the Divine Mother. One's own mother is the combination of all these Divine beings. She provides you with energy, wealth and intelligence. She constantly desires your advancement in life and hence represents all the three Goddesses. Recognising one's mother as the very embodiment of all divine forces, one must show reverence to her and treat her with love. This is the true message that the Navaratri festival gives us.
- Sri Sathya Sai Baba
