Thought for the day
as written at Prasanthi Nilayam today

Why are character and virtues more important than education and money? Bhagawan lovingly explains and reminds us today.
A person whose heart is filled with good thoughts and noble intentions will put education and money to good use. On the other hand, a person whose heart is filled with evil thoughts, bad qualities, and wicked feelings will put both education and money to evil use. It is only the mind of man which is the primary cause of good or bad use of education and wealth. Here is an example to illustrate this. If you put water in a red-coloured bottle, the colour of the water will appear to be red. If you put it in a blue-coloured bottle, it will appear to be blue. In the same way, whatever is the quality of the human heart, education and money will assume that quality only. If a man is filled with rajoguna (quality of passion), the education and wealth he acquires will assume rajoguna. If a man is filled with sattvaguna (quality of serenity), the education and money acquired by him will also have a similar quality. The qualities of man are responsible for making education and money either good or bad. A man may have many types of powers, but if he lacks the power of virtues, his education and money will be absolutely useless.
