Thought for the Day

Good ideas have to be accepted and bad ones eschewed. Each idea has to be judged in the Supreme Court of Viveka (Wisdom). And the ruling has to be treated as inviolable. It is in this context that we have to remind ourselves of the prayer of Gandhiji, Sabko sanmati de Bhagwan - "O God, Bestow right understanding on all." Again, the individual born in the lake of society must swim and float in the calm waters, and joining the river of progress, merge in the ocean of grace. Man has to move from the stance of "I" to the position of "We"; this day, we see only the wild dance of ego-stricken individuals, who hate society and behave most unsocially. Water flows from a higher level to the lower levels. God's Grace too is like that. It flows down to those who are bent with humility. So, give up ego, overcome jealousy, and cultivate love.
