Salient Thought
for the Day
We must carry such balance with us that anyone looking into our face will feel new strength.
Lines
to Memorize
Those who have not turned away from evil conduct, whose senses are uncontrolled, who are not tranquil, whose minds are not at rest, can never attain this great Self even by knowledge.
~Katha-Upanishad
Lesson
We must find time to balance our forces and faculties. Our spiritual power can be tremendously increased. It depends upon our balance and the common sense we use. Our character must be sound, our life must be rhythmic, then order and harmony will become natural to us. A mind that has a sense of order puts everything where it belongs.
Prayer
Infinite One, bestow upon me the gift of discrimination.
That I may cross over all difficulties and rough places trusting to Your protection and guidance.
Kindle in me a new faith, a new surrender.
May I never seek to follow my own will or shape my life according to my own plan.
Help me never to retard my spiritual growth by acting contrary to Your Divine plan.
May I seek my peace in You alone.
