Thought for the Day - 12th September 2012 (Wednesday)


While you should develop the habit of saving money in a bank for the sake of old age and rainy days, you must also start the habit of making deposits in the Spiritual Bank, so that you can truly be ‘saved’. The currency and metals accepted in the Divine Bank are Truth, Love and Right Conduct. All words, feelings, actions, thoughts ringing with purity of these metals will be gladly accepted as deposits. So, as you take care of your savings deposit in the many worldly banks, you must make it a point to have an account and grow it in the Bank of the Divine too. When you are hard-pressed for money, you approach your bank seeking loans. The bank will help you, but only in proportion to your deposits. Similarly your Divine Banker will save you from distress and grief very quickly, if you have deposited with Him the wealth of Truth, Love, Right Conduct and Peace.

Meskipun engkau mengembangkan kebiasaan menyimpan uang di bank sebagai simpanan di usia tua dan pada saat keadaan terdesak, engkau juga harus memulai kebiasaan membuat deposito di Bank Spiritual, sehingga engkau benar-benar bisa 'diselamatkan'. Mata uang dan logam yang diterima di Bank Ilahi adalah Kebenaran, Cinta-kasih, dan Kebajikan. Semua ucapan, perasaan, tindakan, pikiran dengan kemurnian logam ini akan diterima dengan senang hati sebagai deposito. Jadi, saat engkau menjaga tabungan-mu di beberapa bank duniawi, engkau juga harus memiliki simpanan/tabungan yang terus berkembang di Bank Ilahi. Bila engkau mengalami kesulitan keuangan, engkau datang ke bank untuk mencari pinjaman. Bank akan membantumu, tetapi hanya dalam proporsi deposito-mu. Demikian pula Banker Ilahi akan menyelamatkanmu dari kesusahan dan kesedihan dengan sangat cepat, jika engkau telah memiliki simpanan kekayaan berupa Kebenaran, Cinta-Kasih, Kebajikan, dan Kedamaian.
