| THOUGHT FOR THE DAY |
The chief source of bliss is dedication to God. Nothing else can give that genuine and everlasting joy. Become conscious of your kinship with the Lord - it is not mere folklore or a fairy tale or a faked theory. This kinship has existed from the beginning of Time and will persist till the very end of Time. Every individual is born in the path of righteousness (Dharma Marga), journeys through the path of action (Karma Marga), rushes through the path of sages (Sadhu Marga) to reach the Supreme Reality (Brahma Marga). The path of action and the path of the Sages are illumined by the Jnanendriyas (organs of perception). Keep the Jnanendriyas and the Karmendriyas (sense organs) uncontaminated and pure. The cow eats grass and drinks gruel and gives sweet, sustaining milk. So too, let the experiences you gather through the organs, help in the production of sweetness and kindness. With pure devotion, lead your lives in peace and bliss. - Sri Sathya Sai Baba |

Arjuna's dejection was a case of finely disguised egoism. He was a hero until he came to the battlefield and became a coward. It was all about 'I and Mine'; "I will go to hell, I would rather beg, I will not fight my uncle, my Guru, my cousin, etc." 'I and mine' are two poison fangs; they have to be removed to make you harmless. Krishna counselled Arjuna: "You are not killing, so don't be conceited, they are deathless; the death sentence on their bodies has already been pronounced and you are merely executing God's will!" Krishna made Arjuna aware of himself and removed his delusions. Arjuna realized that he was but an instrument in the hands of the Lord. You too must learn from that lesson, for otherwise, there will be no end to your misery. Always pray Thamaso maa jyothirgamaya - Lead me from darkness to light. Egoism is darkness (thamas); Surrender (Sharanagathi) is light. - Sri Sathya Sai Baba |
