THOUGHT FOR THE DAY AS WRITTEN AT PRASANTHI NILAYAM TODAY
Desire and disappointments are the order of the day. Human life for most people seems to be full of fear. Various types of fears haunt wherever one is, whatever one does. How can one escape fear? Even the little objects of happiness which one seems to derive from life, is coupled with fear of losing them soon! Sin and merit, joy and sorrow, profit and loss, light and darkness are pairs of opposites that every being undergoes during their lives. Truly speaking, the absence of one (sorrow), indicates the presence of other (joy)! Saint Adi Shankara further clarified, "Where there is no attachment, there will be no fear!" How can one attain that state? By attaining proximity with the Divine! He further exhorted, "Banish fear by cultivating detachment (Vairagya) and journeying towards the Self. It is through Self-Realization that you can understand the true nature of fear and overcome it. (My Dear Students, Vol 3, Ch 17)
