THOUGHT FOR THE DAY as written at Prasanthi Nilayam Today
The various forms of wisdom one acquires are all useful at some stage or
the other of one's spiritual development. But by none of them can one escape
the cycle of birth and death! Anubhavajnana, the knowledge that you yourself
experience alone, can set you free. The teacher can be of some help in the
process, but cannot show you your real self. You have to visualise it yourself!
For this one must be steeped in earnestness. Sincerity is essential even for
the performance of the smallest act in the world - be it a human being, bird,
beast, worm, or a virus - all have to be earnest to succeed in their tasks.
When there is no earnestness in the act, there will be no fruit. And also one
has to be free from vices like envy. The person who has faith in that Wisdom,
who is devoted to acquire it, and is full of yearning to earn it, will surely
realise God.
BABA
