THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
Many people try to do Hata Yoga or try to develop Kundalini Shakthi and so on. Some invoke evil spirits to harm others. These forms of spiritual practices are not Satwik. God is the Eternal Absolute (Sat) and the individual is Consciousness (Chit). When these two (Sat and Chit) merge, you have bliss (Ananda). Your spiritual practices must help you to realize this bliss (Sat-chit-ananda). Only such practices deem to be called Sadhana. Where is God (Sat)? God is present in everyone. So always be prepared to serve everyone, regarding them as Divine. Your spiritual practices (Sadhana) must help you cultivate the feeling of Universal Love and adoration for the Divine that embraces everyone. There is no higher spiritual practice than the cultivation of Love. Hence, intensify your spiritual practices in the spirit that the one God pervades the many forms in the Universe. (Divine Discourse, "My Dear Students", Vol 2, Chapter 3)

YESTERDAY'S THOUGHT
Always help the poor and those suffering and in distress. Once upon a time, in Tamil Nadu, lived a poet saint who squatted on the small veranda of his hut and chanted beautiful songs to the Lord. One day, it was raining heavily. Another man came and asked him if he could also take shelter there. The devotee said, "There was place just enough for me to stretch out, but now that you are here we will both sit erect." Later, another man came and asked for shelter. The devotee again agreed, saying "There was place for the two of us to sit. Now that you also have come, let us all stand." He thus taught the principle of helping everyone and not sending anyone away who needed help, even when the means are limited. Cultivate this attitude of sharing with others any good thing you have. Thus you can practice daily, the great principle of finding God in every being. (Divine Discourse,"Summer Showers in Brindavan: 1972", Ch 21)
