The Thought of the Day

 
28 Feb 2019 

Why should we be concerned about the unity of our thoughts, words and deeds always? Bhagawan lovingly explains and inspires today.
 

The worst action you can perform is to do the opposite of what you preach - to deny by the hand what you dole out of your mouth. If you cannot live up to your declarations, keep quiet; do not go about advising because otherwise what you are really doing is that you are self-advertising that you are a hypocrite. Do not preach dharma (virtue) while decrying it in deed. Dharma is steady, unchanging; it can never decline. What happens is: those who have to practise dharma decline in faith and steadfastness. Every individual is judged by practice, not by the precepts that they pour forth. The seed grows slowly into a huge spreading tree; so, too, through tiny acts, soft words and kind deeds, man elevates himself into a Divine Being!

- Divine Discourse, Mar 31, 1965.
