People should take great care that their senses do not go astray and commit offences. Thinking evil, speaking evil and seeing evil can invariably lead to total ruin. For example, in the Mahabharata, Duryodhana had evil thoughts about the Pandavas, and ultimately he brought destruction upon his entire family. The Ramayana had the story of Kaikeyi, who listened to the evil counsel of Manthara and so lost not only her husband but also the regard and love of her son Bharata. No one today likes to be known by these infamous characters Duryodhana, Keechaka, or Ravana. But though their names are not favoured, the bad qualities associated with them have not been given up by mankind. Strive to give up evil looks, vicious speech, and the greed to give ear to evil counsel and slanderous gossip.
Bagavan Sri sri sri Sathya Sai Baba
