THOUGHT FOR THE DAY as written at Prasanthi Nilayam Today
Millions read and write; millions have qualified for degrees and have
become experts and specialists. This only means that they are efficient
collectors of information or big encyclopaedias of general knowledge! But none
can say, who one really is. People try to fly millions of miles into space, but
they are powerless to travel even half an inch into their own inner realm and
discover what lies therein. What is the use then, of the vast amount of
exertion and energy they have spent for their education? True learning must be
like that of ancient India, where knowledge and scientific temper was developed
and practised along with sense and mind control, and character development.
That will be beneficial to the individual, the society and lead to the
progressive unfolding of the Divinity present in every being.
BABA
