THOUGHT FOR THE DAY as written at Prasanthi Nilayam Today
There was once an old woman in Paris. It was winter and December was
around the corner. Many poor people were sleeping on the streets and shivering
with cold. She went around the streets and covered them with a blanket. She
completed the job without any fuss or noise. Over time, the people in the town
came to know about it. They wondered why this humble old woman who was herself
struggling to make her ends meet setting out to help others! When children used
to ask her, “Grandma, why are you walking with your head down? You are a great
person!” she would respond humbly, “God is giving us everything with many
hands, and I am giving with a single hand. Is that not a shame for me?” Many
great people world over, have placed before us the high ideals of charity.
(Divine Discourse, “My Dear Students”, Vol 2, Chapter 4.)
