THOUGHT FOR THE DAY as written at Prasanthi Nilayam Today
Scriptures are only road-maps; at best they are guide-books that give
directions for the destination. It is the actual journey that will reveal the
hardships, the delays, the land-slips, the potholes as well as the beauty of
the scenic route on the way, and the magnificence of the destination. No
secondhand account can equal the firsthand experience! The symbols on the map
are interpreted differently by different scholars according to their
preconceived notions, predilections and pet theories. If you acquire Love, then
you can dispense with the Scriptures; for the purpose of all the Scriptures is
just that: to create the feeling of Sarvajana samaana prema (equal love for
all), and to negate egoism which stands in the way. Reason too, if it comes in
the way of this love, is to be discarded as 'perverted'.
