THOUGHT FOR THE DAY as written at Prasanthi Nilayam Today
           


      In this world, to receive one thing, you need to give up another. When 
you want a simple handkerchief, you need to pay rupees ten, only then will the 
shopkeeper sell it to you. God is a very kind merchant. If you offer even a 
small amount of devotion, the Merciful Lord will, in return, shower infinite 
amount of Grace on you. The poor devotee, Kuchela offered a handful of beaten 
rice to Lord Krishna and received His blessings in abundance. Queen Draupadi, 
during a distressful moment, prayed with a pure heart. Because of the little 
sacrifice she made earlier, Lord Krishna rushed to respond to her call and 
showered His infinite Grace to protect her. The fruits of action are inevitable 
and no one can escape them. However you can nullify or modify the consequences 
to a certain extent, if you become worthy and deserve His Grace. (Divine 
Discourse, "My Dear Students", Vol 3, Ch 3, June 30, 1996)
