THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
Rama's name is a life-giving essence with esoteric significance. It consists of three syllables: Ra + Aa + Ma. The combination of the three letters constitute the name 'Rama'. Ra representing Agni (the Fire God), burns away all sins; Aa representing Surya (the Sun God), dispels the darkness of ignorance; and Ma representing Chandra (the Moon God), cools one's temper and produces tranquility. The name Rama has the triple power of washing away one's sins, removing one's ignorance, and tranquilizing one's mind. How can this profound meaning of the name Rama be imparted to mankind? This can be done only by the Divine coming in human form and demonstrating to mankind the power of the Divine. Rama was one who, while appearing to lead the life of an ordinary man, led the Life Divine. He demonstrated the ideal life of a spiritually realised person. (Divine Discourse, Apr 5, 1998)
-Sri Sathya Sai Baba

YESTERDAY'S THOUGHT
The profound message the divine epic Ramayana gives is: One must lead the life of a human being, and one must seek oneness with the Divine. In every human being, all the three natures – human, divine, and demonic – are present. But most people today ignore their humanness and Divinity, and foster only their demonic nature. In fact, one should strive to manifest the Divinity, and not display one's weakness or unpleasant qualities. In every act, Rama set the example, be it in individual conduct, in the discharge of duties to the family, or in fulfilling the obligations to society. Rama demonstrated the ideals to be followed. All should begin with fulfilling their individual obligations. The duty of the individual is to manifest the Divinity within. As an individual, Rama revealed the Divinity in Him through His ideal conduct. (Divine Discourse, Apr 5, 1998)
-Sri Sathya Sai Baba

YESTERDAY'S THOUGHT
Every action carries with it an equal reaction. Every action is a seed, and these seeds grow into trees, so always undertake only sacred actions. Sometimes, we undertake actions with full enthusiasm and joy. When we end up suffering from the action's consequences, we shed tears and lament. Hence, before you start doing anything, you must first think; discriminate between good and bad action, and conduct yourselves accordingly. You must also give importance to the appropriateness of the speech that flows through the action. Never do anything that will cause others trouble. It may appear impossible to go on with your duties without the feeling of body consciousness and attachment. But by constantly thinking of God, you must reduce these feelings. Then there will be no misery; pain and pleasure will not bother you. (Divine Discourse, "My Dear Students", Vol 3, Ch 3, June 30, 1996)
-Sri Sathya Sai Baba

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
Due to the force of gravity objects fall. The gravitational force is invisible to our eyes. Similarly, there are innumerable divine forces operating in this Universe. You must not deny them just because you cannot see them. Only the power of the Divine enables you to speak, see, move and think. All the power of the sense organs are derived from the Divine. In conceit, you may imagine that you are the doer. This is the result of ignorance and folly. Ask the question, what is responsible for existence? The answer is Divinity. Without faith in the Divine, nothing can be achieved. There is no need to seek a reason for this faith – Faith has no season or reason, it is like the love of a child for the mother. The child loves its mother for the sole reason that she is its mother. Develop such confidence and firm faith, you can realize God. (Divine Discourse, "My Dear Students", Vol 2, Ch 8, June 15, 1989)

YESTERDAY'S THOUGHT
When Krishna was placed in the weighing scale, Rukmini brought one Tulasi leaf and said, "One may offer a leaf, a flower, fruit, or even just water to God. I offer this Tulasi leaf to You. If it is true that you rescue the person devoted to You, I pray, let this leaf of Tulasi balance Your weight." The sanctity of sacred thoughts and acts are not understood by many. Rukmini's offering was filled with devout feeling, so it equaled the weight of Lord Krishna, who is the very Lord of the Universe. Rukmini accomplished this feat through her selfless devotion. What is the significance in the offering of a leaf? Body (deha) is a leaf (patram) with three attributes of Satva, Rajas and Tamas. Heart (Hrudaya) is a flower (pushpam). The flower of the heart is pure and sacred. From this flower comes the fruit, mind with its sweet juice. You must offer this to God. (Divine Discourse, "My Dear Students", Vol 3, Ch 3, June 30, 1996)
-Sri Sathya Sai Baba
