Thought for the Day

Embodiments of Love! Where the mind is active, all the three worlds exist! Where there is no mind, nothing exists there. Mind is the main cause of your suffering and misery. To control the mind, you must keep your desires under check. Nature sets an ideal to the entire humanity to imbibe the spirit of sacrifice and lead a spiritual life. Our scriptures teach that the world is temporary and full of misery, so contemplate on God (Anityam Asukham Lokam Imam Prapya Bhajasva Mam). Ask yourself, despite knowing these truths, why are you not able to cultivate the spirit of sacrifice? Despite knowing the truth that the body is temporary, why are you still bound by desires? Since there is no end to desires, you are being subjected to endless misery. To get rid of your misery, you must follow the ideals of Nature. Nature is the best preacher. It exhorts you to cultivate love, compassion and spirit of sacrifice.
