Thought for the day - As written at PRASANTHI NILAYAM Today 6/9/2003

 

A piece of string may be white and bright, but no one will wear it

around the neck; but, the moment it gets converted into a garland of

fragrant flowers, all would love to have it in their hair or around

their neck. The Sathsang (holy company) of flowers bestows on the

string a high status. The success of the Saadhana (spiritual

practice) to follow the path of Truth depends on self-control and

sense control. This is necessary for successful execution of our

daily routine chores. Birds, beasts, insects and worms suffer much

by their activity directed by their senses alone. But, in man it has

become a highly developed skill because he must be able to separate

the chaff from the grain and decide on the constructive path of

truth and righteousness.
