What is the difference between what we think and how we act? How can we steady our conduct and improve ourselves? Swami explains to us in very clear terms today.
Have high ideals. Strive to elevate yourselves. Work to attain the highest goal, God Himself. Whatever the obstacle or the opposition, do not be disheartened. Give up the animal in you, stabilize yourselves in human virtues, and proceed boldly towards the achievement of Divinity. Do not waver - having devotion today, tomorrow seeking sensual gratification, and then the day after, back to devotion again. When something goes wrong, you are filled with despair. When discipline is enforced, you start holding back, and when love is showered, you are first again. This dual attitude must be given up.
-Divine Discourse, March 7, 1978 .
A man with dual mind is half blind. - Baba
