Thought for the day as written at Prasanthi Nilayam - Sept. 3, 2005

[Guest guest]

Health is the essential prerequisite for success in all aspects of

life, and for realizing the four ideals that guide human life - moral

living, prosperity, fulfilling beneficial desires and liberation from

grief. Man seeks to live happily and peacefully, but happiness and

peace are not won from worldly activities. The body that yearns to be

healthy and secure is subject to disease, decay and death. However,

the Indweller, the Self, within the body is not born nor does it die.

The body is the temple of God. Hence, it is the duty of man to keep

the temple in good condition.
