Guest guest Posted May 8, 2009 Report Share Posted May 8, 2009 Home Maintained by www.srisathyasai.org.in - the official Website of Sri Sathya Sai Central Trust at Prasanthi Nilayam View last 30 days thoughts TEXT only As written at PRASANTHI NILAYAM Today 8th May 2009 The body is a chariot. The charioteer is the principle of Buddhi (intellect). The senses are the horses. The reins that regulate and restrain the horses is the Manas (mind). When the mind wavers and wanders, not having stability of purpose, the horses run helter-skelter, endangering even the charioteer, Buddhi (intellect). So, one has to control the mind and not pollute it with greed for sense pleasures. The mind has to act as the associate of Buddhi. Speech subserving the mind and mind subserving the intellect - this is the way to bring about Prashanthi, the Supreme Peace. And, slowly and steadily, instruct the intellect to turn towards the Atma. Speech guided by a mind, which is in tune with an intellect illumined by the Atma - this will lead to us the ultimate goal. - BABA Now surf faster and smarter !
