THOUGHT FOR THE DAY as written at Prasanthi Nilayam Today
In the present times, it is impossible to find virtuous people or virtues
holding sway over people's minds. People have lost the fear of a fall and
become worse than animals. During previous centuries, Rajput women immolated
themselves rather than fall into the hands of wicked foes. When Hanuman offered
to take Sita back to Rama, the virtue of Sita would not allow her to accept the
offer. She said that it would best suit her husband's fame if he himself
avenges the wrong and rescues her. Hanuman's taking her, would be a repetition
of what Ravana did, for he too stole her secretly while Rama was away. She did
not consider her immediate relief as more important than the implications of
that step to her virtue and her husband's fair name. It all lies in the vision
that you command, that you have equipped yourselves with.
