THOUGHT FOR THE DAY

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY 
OUR MOST BELOVED BHAGAWAN’S DIVINE MESSAGE 
All the effort and investment you expend in pursuing the 
scriptures and noble thoughts are a sheer waste, if study 
and reflection do not help you to recognize that the mind 
is worse than a drunken monkey. Pilgrimages are for
elevating the heart, sublimating the impulses and 
leading the lower self to higher levels of thought and 
action. Reason serves the same purpose, or at least, it 
ought to. Reason seeks to know the unity of the universe, 
the origin and the goal of all of it. Through reason, you 
should understand the laws that govern the microcosm 
(anu) and the macrocosm (Bruhath). It peeps behind the 
ever receding curtain to get a glimpse of the Puppeteer 
(Suthradhari) who pulls the strings.(Divine Discourse, Apr 
12, 1959.)
