THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
People who take a pledge to observe certain disciplines in all times, fail to do so when the circumstances are not congenial. One day all the deers in the forest held a conference. They discussed thus: "Do dogs possess the abilities we have?" One of them bravely said, "If we kick a dog appropriately, it can be disembowelled; we have that power!" Another deer added, "Dogs cannot run at speeds we can. We can even leap in the air." The third said, "Exactly! Dogs can't run as fast as us and we are stronger and more capable. From now on, we should not be afraid of dogs. We must face them with all our strength and fight back". Having thus decided, they all clapped merrily. Hearing this noise, a dog in a distance howled loudly. No sooner did the deers hear the sound, all of them, without any exception, fled the place. The behaviour of those who preach Vedanta these days is very much on a par with these deers. (My Dear Students, Vol 3,Ch 5, June 27, 1989)

YESTERDAY'S THOUGHT
Cultivate the five values of Truth, Righteousness, Peace, Love and Nonviolence (Sathya, Dharma, Shanti, Prema and Ahimsa). When you have Sathya and Dharma, you will automatically get peace (Shanti). When you are peaceful, you will not hurt or hate anybody (Ahimsa). This peaceful attitude blossoms into love and brings about equality in every being. When such a loving environment prevails, there will be no quarrels in the world. Therefore, truth and righteousness are essential to attain and grow in love. In any situation, come what may, never take the path of untruth. If you speak untruth, there is no love. Speak the truth at all times, attain love and feel it everywhere around you. This is the essence of the scriptures, taught by many sages and saints in various methods. God is Love. (My Dear Students, Vol 2, Ch 12, June 4, 2009)
-Sri Sathya Sai Baba
