THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
OUR MOST BELOVED BHAGAWAN’S DIVINE MESSAGE
Every one of you has in possession a ticket for
liberation from the cycle of birth and death. But
most do not know the train that has to be boarded;
many get down at intermediate stations,
imagining them to be the terminus and wander
helplessly in the wilderness, or are carried away by
sights and scenes. Until the wound heals, and the
new skin is formed and hardens, the bandage is
essential. So too, until Reality is realized, the balm
of faith, holy company and holy thoughts must be
applied to the ego-affected mind. It is dedication
to the Lord that sanctifies all activities. He is the
Prompter, the Executor, the Giver of the required
strength and skill, and the Enjoyer of the fruit
thereof. So dedication must come naturally to you, for all is His, and nothing is yours. Your duty
is to believe that He is the impeller of your activities and draw strength from that belief.(Divine
Discourse, Oct 14, 1964.)  message sent to me by guruyayaathi guru /thiagarajan.
