THOUGHT FOR THE DAY

To enjoy peace, mankind must be controlled and directed by ideals of dharma; this depends on mutual toleration in the family, which again is based on individual conduct that is pure (satwic) and that aims at pleasing everyone. Such conduct has a charm of its own. Avoid in your behaviour, actions and speech all traces of the desire to cause pain or insult others, or to cause loss or misery to others. Find out the best means of reforming yourself thus, practise this type of living, desist from injury to yourself for your own good, and always walk in the path of truth. For this, large-heartedness is essential. People can acquire it only if they have (1) an inborn desire (samskara) for it and (2) devotion in every act. Through devotion to the Lord, one gets humility, fear of sin, and faith in the scriptures. Through these qualities, littleness of mind is wiped out and people become large-hearted.
