Thought for the Day

1.You are overly concerned about your body. It is just a water bubble. The mind is a bundle of thoughts. Hence, one should not lead one's life reposing one’s entire faith in the body and mind. In today's world, righteousness has declined and the whole world is filled with injustice, indiscipline, and evil behaviour. In such a chaotic situation, faith in God is the only lasting remedy. Love God to receive the gift of love from God. Truth is the only refuge, for truth is God. Love is God, live in Love.

2.People generally think that giving up family life, property, land and other forms of wealth is thyaga (sacrifice). But that is not sacrifice at all; in fact, running away in this manner is easy. What is required is sacrificing one's desires; that is real sacrifice! You must realize the purpose of human life. We are not born merely to eat, drink and make merry. Human birth is for helping our fellow human beings. We should not cause harm to anybody. We should not speak harsh words. We must always follow the motto: “Help ever, Hurt never”.

3.The human body is Panchabouthika (made up of the five elements, namely, earth, water, fire, air, and space). It consists of Panchendriyas (five senses) that crave for fulfilling desires. There are also certain values like Sathya (truth), Dharma (righteousness), Shanti (peace), Prema (love), and Ahimsa (non-violence) hidden in the core of our personality. These noble qualities are inherent in each and every one of us. They have to be brought out and manifested in our daily life. This process is called ‘Educare’.
