Guest guest Posted February 10, 2002 Report Share Posted February 10, 2002 Jaya Guru Datta, Here is today's saying: "Blame and praise are the two sides of the coin called life. It is difficult to tolerate blame or censure, whereas everyone likes and loves to be praised. We should not become angry with those who show us our faults. On the other hand, we should accept them gladly and be grateful to them. By listening to praise constantly, our ego gets bloated and the thirst to be praised more and as often as possible remains unquenched and ultimately hastens our ruin. It is therefore necessary to this equipoise in life to remain unmoved like a rock amidst the lashing waves of blames and praises that rise eternally in the ocean of life . . . Establish yourself in this yoga of even-mindedness." Sri Swamiji, Follow the Master, p. 148 Sri Guru Datta, Swamiji Says Suggest a quote for this week's Swamiji Says!
