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.)
