Thought for the DayAs written at PRASANTHI NILAYAM Today

9th October 2005

The Upanishads have declared that immortality can be experienced only through

Thyaga (renunciation or sacrifice). This renunciation does not mean giving up

hearth and home, kith and kin. It means giving up the transient and impermanent

things of the world. This calls for discrimination between what is permanent and

what is perishable. This kind of discrimination is absent among people today.

Instead, they discriminate between what is convenient and what is unpleasant

and choose the former. Discrimination should be exercised objectively to

determine what is permanent and what is transient, what is good and what is

bad. Only then can man discover the Sat-Chit-Ananda (Being-Awareness-Bliss)

that is within him.

 

- BABA
