Thought for the day as written at Prasanthi Nilayam - June 18, 2005

[Guest guest]

There are four types of people: the 'dead', who deny the Lord and

declare that they alone exist, independent, free, self-regulating and

self-directed; the 'sick', who call upon the Lord whenever some

calamity befalls them or whenever they feel temporarily deserted by

the usual sources of succour; the 'dull', who know that God is the

eternal companion, but who remember it only off and on, when the idea

presents itself powerfully; and lastly, the 'healthy', who have steady

faith in the Lord and who live in His comforting presence always.
