What is the correct purpose of this life that we should be focussed on? How can we bring ourselves back on track? Swami teaches us key tenets and a valuable lesson today for us to reach Him.
When kama (desire) and krodha (anger) are rising in hot flames from the heart, how can the cool rays of Shanthi (peace), Sathya (truth), Ahimsa (non-violence) and Prema (love) emanate therefrom? This human birth is a rare chance. Use it for spreading joy, not grief. Of course it is natural for man to resent, to grow angry. You should not allow anger free and furious scope. The raging floods have to be restrained by bunds and dams so that the water may reach the sea without scouring the fields on either bank. You must set limits to your own anger and hatred, and honour those limits.
- Divine Discourse, 28 Aug 1976 .
Love must express itself as Service. - Baba
