Guest guest Posted January 4, 2010 Report Share Posted January 4, 2010 Sai News Source: Radio Sai web site In this creation, wisdom is enveloped in ignorance. So long as the lamp is burning, there will be a shadow beneath it. That is just inevitable. So too, when the flame of illusion is burning, the shadow of ignorance persists, right underneath! However, the Knowledge of Self destroys the ignorance and makes wisdom shine, just as sunrise illumines the whole world and confers peace and wellbeing. To attain this result of peace, effort is super critical. The mind is conditioned to good or bad, by the environment. The reformers of today do not strive to transform the qualities of people. They are trying to bring about equality in economic matters, in outer life. Improving economic status alone will not bring about lasting peace. Lasting peace can only be obtained, when character is moulded and developed. There is an urgent need to reform the character through the Knowledge of the Self. This reform alone will bear fruit, the fruit of peace and eternal bliss.- Baba Thought for the day as written at Prasanthi Nilayam today5th January 2010 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
