| Date: Saturday, June 01, 2013 | | THOUGHT FOR THE DAY | Education must result in the development of wisdom (Viveka) and humility (Vinaya). The educated person must be able to distinguish between the momentary and the momentous, the lasting and the effervescent. As an educated person, you must not run after glitter and glamour but must seek the good and golden. Keep the body in good trim, the senses under strict control, the mind well within check, the intellect sharp and clear, unhampered by prejudices and hatreds, and the feelings untouched by egoism. You must know the Divine Self, Atma too, for that is the very core. That is the effulgence which illumines your inner and outer selves. You must also cultivate Vinaya (humility). As an educated person, you must be grateful to your parents, who with great sacrifice have given you all the facilities that you now enjoy. - Sri Sathya Sai Baba | | | "SBOI" | Date: Friday, May 31, 2013 | | | The Lord cares for your concentration (Ekagratha) and purity of mind (Chittashuddhi). You need not worry if you are near or far from Him. He has no 'near' or 'far'. When the address you write is correct and clear, your letter will be delivered whether it is to the next street or a distant city. Remembering the Lord (Smarana) is the stamp. Recapitulating His Glory in your heart (Manana) is the Address. Select any Name that appeals to you for Smarana and Manana. Be careful not to talk ill of other Names and Forms. Conduct yourself like the woman in a joint family. She respects all elders in the family (father in law or brother in law), but her heart is dedicated to her husband, whom she loves and reveres in a special manner. Never carp at others' faith, it reveals that your devotion is fake. If you are sincere, you will appreciate the sincerity of others. - Sri Sathya Sai Baba |
