THOUGHT FOR THE DAY

Channel the love that arises in you towards God. Dedicate your body to the Divine. This is the true mark of devotion. There are three constituents in man: the mind, the power of speech and the body. These three are called Trikaranas - the three active agencies in man. It is when all three are used for sacred purposes, that man becomes sanctified. Spirituality alone can purify the heart and mind of man. Morality helps to purify speech. Righteous deeds sanctify the body. It is through spirituality, morality and righteousness that the three instruments get purified. Only the one who has achieved this threefold purity can realize the Divine. If any of these instruments are impure, he cannot realize the Divine.

- Baba
