THOUGHT FOR THE DAY as written at Prasanthi Nilayam Today
Udhaseena (detachment marked by renunciation) is a state that is neither
complaisance nor indifference. It means detachment from good as well as bad. I
will explain this with an illustration: When a thorn gets into your foot, you
use another thorn to remove the first one. After this you will have to discard
both the thorns. You should not keep with you the second thorn though it has
helped you in removing the first thorn. This is how you must gradually renounce
the good and the bad. We should gradually cut down our relationship with the
world. Most importantly do not enter into activities that induce unnecessary
relationships, for that will prove detrimental to one's welfare. (Divine
Discourse, Oct 10, 1997)
