THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
The word 'Health' is derived from the Anglo-Saxon word 'Helig' meaning holistic or wholeness of the spirit. You are made up of sense organs, mind, intellect, consciousness and the indwelling spirit. 'Wholeness' includes all these elements. Your mind should be in a state of fullness; there should be no room for confusion or depression. To achieve such a state of mind, it is necessary to connect with the Divine and understand the situation. For instance, students should not get depressed if they did not score as well as they expected or perhaps failed in an examination. Instead, they should examine the reasons for the result â€" whether they studied well or understood the subject correctly. If the conclusion is inadequate preparation, then the resolve should be to do better in the next opportunity. You must develop your moral and mental strength by practicing Sadhana for disciplining the mind and achieve holistic well-being. (Divine Discourse, "My Dear Students", Vol 2, Ch 1, Dec 29, 1985)

Yesterday's Thought
All of you have seen a map of the world, is it not? How little is India in this map? Compared to India, Andhra Pradesh is small. The district of Anantapur is still tinier. In this district, Puttaparthi is virtually a microscopic dot on the map. Now you as a person residing in Puttaparthi are practically so insignificant. Then how can you suffer from ego? Remember, God is all around you. There is no meaning at all in being egoistic. You may feel proud that you are educated; there are more educated people than you. You may think you are beautiful; there are any number more beautiful than you. Maybe you are good at singing; there are several who can sing better than you. Why are you then so proud of yourself? This is mere ignorance. Do not give place to ego. Become egoless, give up pomp and show. Be selfless and lead a life that befits an educated person. Always, Help Ever, Hurt Never. (Divine Discourse, "My Dear Students", Vol 2, Chapter 1)
