THOUGHT FOR THE DAY as written at Prasanthi Nilayam Today
True education will make you divine. Education is not mere knowledge of
words; it should broaden the mind. The mere acquisition of degrees is
valueless. Character is more important and it can be developed only by taking
to the spiritual path. Of what use is an education that does not promote good
qualities? Together with academic education you have to acquire wisdom and a
sense of right and wrong. Knowledge without wisdom, scholarship without
determination, music without melody, learning without humility, a society
without discipline, friendship without gratitude, and speech without truth -
all these are utterly useless. Hence everyone should seek to follow the correct
path. It is not greatness that matters but goodness. Make proper use of your
education for the good of society. (Divine Discourse, Nov 22, 1997)
