Thought for the Day - 5th November 2009 (Thursday)


We speak of the sky and the ocean as being blue in colour, but this is incorrect. Neither the sky nor the ocean are actually blue themselves. It is the vastness of space and the depth of the ocean that produces this illusion of blueness. If you take some seawater in your palm, you will see that it is actually colourless. Likewise, good and evil depend on our own thoughts and feelings.

Kita mengatakan bahwa langit dan laut berwarna biru, tetapi ini tidaklah benar. Baik langit maupun laut sesungguhnya tidak biru. Luasnya angkasa dan dalamnya lautlah yang menghasilkan ilusi berwarna biru. Jika engkau mengambil air laut di telapak tanganmu, engkau akan melihat bahwa air laut sebenarnya tidak berwarna. Demikian juga, baik dan buruk tergantung pada pikiran dan perasaan kita sendiri.
