Thought for the Day

It must be recognised that sports and music have been designed to confer health and happiness on man. Physical fitness and mental health are equally important. Together with the gross physical body everyone has a subtle body (sukshma sarira). Take good care of your subtle body by performing spiritual exercises which will help you to realize the Divine. True education consists in the acquisition of good qualities, cultivation of good thoughts, truthfulness, devotion, discipline and dedication to duty. Sports and games enable you to acquire these qualities, and they impart a healthy body, mind and joy. Three unique benefits can be derived from sports and games: team spirit, mutual understanding and joy. Even if people speak different languages and differ in their habits and cultures, through the field of sports you can easily build a common bond, and share a spirit of camaraderie. Hence sports and games should be encouraged.
