Thought for the Day - 8th October 2012 (Monday)

If your thoughts are centred around the body,you will have worries of pains and illnesses, real or imaginary. If they are centred on riches, you will be worried about profit and loss, tax and exemptions. If they roam round fame, then, you are bound to suffer from the ups and downs of scandal, calumny and jealousy. So let them centre round the seat of power and love which deserve willing submission -the Name of the Lord. Let your whole being surrender to it. Then you will be happy forever. For the sages of the Vedic culture, the Name of the Lord was the very breath; they lived on the sustenance, which contemplation of the Lord’s glory provided. God is the very embodiment of Love. He can be won only through Love.

Jika pikiran-mu hanya berpusat di sekitar badan jasmani-mu, engkau akan memiliki kekhawatiran tentang sakit dan penyakit, nyata atau imajiner. Jika pikiran berpusat pada kekayaan, engkau akan khawatir tentang keuntungan dan kerugian, pajak dan potongan. Jika pikiran liar, berkelana kemana-mana, maka, engkau pasti akan menderita pasang surut skandal, fitnah, dan kecemburuan. Jadi jagalah pikiran agar berpusat pada  cinta-kasih dan tempat yang sepantasnya yaitu Nama Tuhan, berpasrahlah pada-Nya, maka engkau akan mendapatkan kebahagiaan. Bagi para orang bijak dari budaya Veda, Nama Tuhan adalah napas mereka, mereka hidup dengan Nama Tuhan, senantiasa merenungkan kemuliaan Tuhan. Tuhan adalah perwujudan Cinta-kasih. Beliau bisa dicapai hanya melalui Cinta-kasih.
