Thought for the day as written at Prasanthi Nilayam - Jan 21st, 2006

[Guest guest]

Brahman is the immovable Totality, the Eternal, the True, the Pure and

the Attributeless. Just as the road, though itself stationary, enables

the car to move over it, the Brahman principle is the basis for the

existence and activities of Jivis (individual beings). In fact, there

is only One that appears as two. Look outward, it is Jivi; look

inward, it is God. The outer vision makes you forget; the inner makes

you remember. When man seeks to rise to the divinity which is his

reality, he struggles to recollect and experience his true nature.

When he grovels in the lower levels of consciousness and is enmeshed

in the world, he is caught in the coils of forgetfulness. Removing

selfish desires and expanding one's urge to love and serve is the most

effective way to merge in the Supreme Consciousness.
