| Date: Saturday, June 21, 2014 | | THOUGHT FOR THE DAY | Lord Krishna said, "Don't conduct yourself like a beast, not even like a human being. Know that you are the spark of the Divine. You are ancient, eternal and essentially Divine. Mamaivamsho Jeeva Loke Jeeva Bhoota Sanatanaha." Being the sparks of Divine, you must have the sacred qualities of Truth, Righteousness, Peace, Love and Nonviolence. Instead of behaving in accordance with these noble virtues, people submit themselves to evil qualities like lust, greed, anger, jealousy, hatred and avarice which does not befit a human being. These changes are due to one's food habits and behavior. The food you take and the water you drink must be pure, and timely. Lead a well regulated human life and realise the Divine within you. (My Dear Students, Vol 2,Ch 13, June 7, 2007) -Sri Sathya Sai Baba | | Date: Friday, June 20, 2014 | | YESTERDAY'S THOUGHT | Devotion these days appears more as a way of spending one's time rather than as the royal road to the eternal mansion of the Divine. You need not make much effort to grow grass. But to raise a useful crop you have to labour hard. Likewise, it is no great achievement to experience the trivial and transient pleasures of mundane existence; it is like growing grass. You must strive to cultivate the nectarous and lasting bliss of divine Love. Those who aspire for such love are not easy to find. All appear as devotees. But the one who has experienced the Divine Principle will not go after sensuous pleasures.
