THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
Every one of you will attain fullness in the end. You are at present at a particular stage, as a result of the activities engaged in during your previous lives and the feelings you entertained in the past. The future is being built at present by the activities you are engaging in now and the feelings that urge and shape them. A scholar might write elaborate commentaries on the Gita. But as a result of all that study, if in his character, behaviour and conduct, he does not prove that the Gita has soaked into him, all that punditry is but a burden he is carrying around. So, never treat the learning you derive as so much fodder for the brain. It must be sublimated into Ananda (bliss) for you. Envy, pompousness, egoism — such evil traits have to be driven out of you.

People adore many deities like Rama, Krishna, Sai, but the Divine Principle in all of them is the same. Divine Soul (Atma) does not have a form or a name. Divinity alone is real; the world is unreal. (Brahma Sathyam Jagan Mithya). God has no attributes. He does not punish or harm anybody. He is present in your heart in the form of pure and unsullied love. Develop love more and more. That will protect you always. There is no greater protection than this. There is no weapon more powerful than love.
