THOUGHT FOR THE DAY as written at Prasanthi Nilayam Today
Take a glass of water, at the bottom of which is sugar. Even though there
is sugar in the water, as long as it remains below, the water would not taste
sweet. However if you take a spoon and mix the sugar with water, now sweetness
pervades the entire tumbler. It is the same with our hearts too. Our heart is
like the cup. The Atmic principle is sugar and the worldly desires are the
tasteless water in the cup. You drink this tasteless water of the world and say
that there is no sweetness. But how can you get the taste? Only when you take
the spoon of intelligence, place it inside the cup of the heart and mix with
discrimination between the temporary and permanent, then sweetness pervades.
