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

[Guest guest]

We have in the atmosphere around us, the music emanating from all the

broadcasting stations of the world, but they do not assail your ears

at all times. Only if you have a receiver and you tune it to the

correct wavelength do you hear the broadcast from a particular

station; if you fail to tune it correctly, you will get, instead of

news, only nuisance! So too, the Divine is everywhere - above, around,

below, beside, near as well as far. For cognising it, you require not

a yanthra (machine) but a manthra (mystical formula). Dhyana

(meditation) is the fixing of the exact location of the station in the

band, love is the correct tuning in, realizing the reality and the

bliss it confers is the happy and clear listening!
