THOUGHT FOR THE DAY

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
OUR MOST BELOVED BHAGAWAN’S DIVINE MESSAGE
The jeevi (individual soul) has come to this birth in order
to reveal the splendour of the spark of Godhead which It
is. A rat is attracted by strong smelling cheap little stuff
inside the trap; it neglects all other articles of food in the
granary, and thus falls a prey to its own foolishness.
Similarly people disregard and waste their life in the
pursuit of mortal riches. Be aware and alert. Live in the
world but develop the skills to wonder and discriminate
between the eternal and temporary. Learn to see through
this drama and discover the Director behind the scenes,
who is none else than God. You can easily develop these
skills through devotion (Bhakthi), based on performing
duty without any expectation of results (Nishkama
Karma).(Divine Discourse, Jul 10, 1959.)
