THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
There are many educated youth with multiple degrees. How do they put them to use? To earn money! Money does matter a lot in the present times. You need money even to go to the temple, to drink a cup of coffee or a bottle of water. However you must develop more humanness rather than just running after money. We are responsible for all problems around us. If you shape yourself into a good person and practice what you have learnt, the world would be a different place. Do not lead your lives with arrogance, pride and other wicked qualities. Instead, live your life with a sense of humility and obedience. You become pure, only when you get rid of your wicked qualities. To remove the pollution around you, you must have a pure mind. A pure mind is one that is without any doubts, selfless and steady. Only a pure mind can uphold the honour of a Nation. (My Dear Students, Vol 2, Ch 12, June 4, 2009)

YESTERDAY'S THOUGHT
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)
-Sri Sathya Sai Baba
