THOUGHT FOR THE DAY as written at Prasanthi Nilayam Today
           


      Consider your physical body a chariot. Just as the horse is important for 
the chariot, your mind is the most important thing for your body. What is the 
point if the chariot is very tastefully decorated and the horse is starved? 
Today, many of you are caring so much for the body and entirely neglecting the 
mind. Many have a very good, soft bed and stay in air-conditioned rooms, yet 
their body feels the heat and the mind is suffering from restlessness, with no 
peace of mind. Why? You are caring so much for the body and neglecting the 
mind. Take good care of the mind. If you do so, even if you go to a forest, it 
will be for-rest! The most appropriate food for your mind are virtues, good 
feelings, good conduct and good thought. Feed the horse well, the chariot will 
run! So too, take good care of your mind, you will be happy and 
peaceful.(Divine Discourse, 'My Dear Students', Vol 2, Ch 2.)
