Thought for the Day

Those agitated by doubts about what to accept and reject, those blinded by illusion, unable to distinguish between darkness and light, death and immortality, should approach great saints to understand the eternal truth - the self-illumined basis of all creation. Then, both this world and heaven will be merged in the same effulgence! To attain this realisation, one should have deep yearning and hard, disciplined practice. This human birth is the consequence of countless good deeds, and it should not be cast aside; the chance must be fully exploited! For all those who are really animals in human form, slaves of pride and animal traits, this awareness in time is most important. Therefore, the discriminating individual will endeavour by all means at their disposal to understand the underlying principles, to master the teachings of the great people who practised the spiritual path, and to bring all this, as much as possible, into the ken of their own experience.
