Message for the Day…” Every Divine action is just and righteous. Your duty is to pray to God and secure His Grace.”

The Divine is totally free from self-interest; whatever He does is utterly blameless and is solely for the welfare of the world. There is nothing beyond His powers. He is the creator, the protector and the destroyer. When God chooses to protect, no one asks why He protects. On the other hand, when God does not protect, people question His inaction and when the Lord punishes, people ask, “Why does God inflict punishment?” Indeed, such questions are motivated by selfishness and self-interest. Every Divine action is just and righteous. Your duty is to pray to God and secure His Grace. When Sakkubai wanted to join the pilgrims going to Pandharpur, Lord Krishna decided to show to the world her good reputation, and duty-consciousness towards her husband and in-laws. So Krishna assumed her form and subjected Himself to all kinds of harassments from her mother-in-law, while the real Sakkubai was blissfully away in Pandharpur. The Lord is ever ready to subject Himself to any hardship to uphold Dharma and shower Grace on His devotees.

Message for the Day…”What is humanness? Essentially it means unity in thought, word and deed. True human qualities can grow only in a loving heart, just like a seed can grow in fertile soil and not on a piece of rock.”

Today cynicism and apathy are rampant and people are caught up in meaningless worries, endless desires and unattainable ambitions, and have no peace of mind. People have forgotten their divine essence. Spiritual illumination alone can reveal the right path to everyone who is groping in the darkness of ignorance and peaceless-ness. Divinity is inherent in humanity. Humanity must discover its basic human qualities. What is humanness? Essentially it means unity in thought, word and deed. True human qualities can grow only in a loving heart, just like a seed can grow in fertile soil and not on a piece of rock. Hence all of you must develop compassion and equanimity. Divinity is all pervading and is present within and outside every being. Every one of you is an embodiment of the Divine. Like God you are also embodiments of Love. Expand your love by sharing it with all without narrow-mindedness and make your life purposeful and worthy!

Message for the day…”Born in society, brought up in society, educated by society and deriving countless benefits from society, what are you doing for society?”

Born in society, brought up in society, educated by society and deriving countless benefits from society, what are you doing for society? Social service should be regarded as an expression of gratitude to society for what it has done for us. Without society we cannot survive. The God-given body should be employed for practising Dharma (prescribed duties). Women should treat even their daily chores as a form of concentrated work. If they are unable to attend a Satsang (spiritual gathering) on account of household duties, they should not feel miserable. Discharge of duties at home is as sacred as attending a satsang. Only if you do your duties at home properly will you be able to render proper service outside. In whatever work you do at home, whether sweeping the floor or making chapatis, convert it into a form of spiritual exercise. Infuse every action with love of the Divine and dedicate it to God.

Message for the Day…”You must win over the other by your forbearance. Make forbearance your life-breath and your ideal. You all have the sweet essence of kindness, peace and compassion in you abundantly.”

Develop the quality of forgiveness (Kshama) and refrain from harshness in speech. You must realise that if you give up forbearance and forgiveness, you will have no peace. Whatever anyone may do to you, do not bother about it. What is it you lose on account of their ill behavior? If you resort to retaliation, you will only worsen your condition! You have no idea either of your strength or weakness. Face such situations bravely and do not allow yourself to be agitated over them. You must win over the other by your forbearance. Make forbearance your life-breath and your ideal. You all have the sweet essence of kindness, peace and compassion in you abundantly. With God’s grace, you are free from grief and bad qualities – Do not let them in! Foster the spirit of kindness and love. Treat life as a game and emerge victorious by leading an ideal-filled life. This is the victory you must achieve!

Message for the Day…” Your attitude must be not what you can get from others, but what you can give to others – make that your focus!”

Education must assume full responsibility and impact students’ moral and spiritual life. Imparting technical skills and worldly information alone is not enough; moral and spiritual education must supplement them. People pay huge attention today only to their own selfish interests. This must change. Your attitude must be not what you can get from others, but what you can give to others – make that your focus! The idea that a posh bungalow with expensive furniture, exquisite dining table or a heavy pay package from abroad is the ideal to be worked for should be given up. This ideal breeds evil. Inspire youth to set as their ideal – hands dedicated to hard work, heads dedicated to service and hearts dedicated to compassion. Your goal must be that no one should suffer harm or pain through your words or deeds. For when another is hurt by us, what really happens is insult and injury to our own true human nature.

Message for the Day…”Students and youth must lead lives anchored in righteousness and wisdom, and be shining examples of simplicity, humility and mutual service”

The present day education has only a means of livelihood as its aim. It is job-oriented, not truth-oriented, not God-oriented. Life must be lived in love, peace and bliss. Therefore, even while in schools and colleges, boys and girls must know about the ever peaceful, ever blissful, ever loving Eternal Soul (Atma). The body, the senses, the mind, the reason and intellect are all unreal in the sense of temporary existence. Raising the standard of living is not as important as raising the level of consciousness. Education today highlights accumulation of things. Indeed, giving up is equally essential. Renunciation is not a loss; it is highly profitable, because you acquire joy thereby. Renunciation means freedom; it is surrender to God, love and freedom. God can be realised only through the expansion of Love. Students and youth must lead lives anchored in righteousness and wisdom, and be shining examples of simplicity, humility and mutual service.
